T-regulatory cells: key players in tumor immune escape and angiogenesis

A Facciabene, GT Motz, G Coukos - Cancer research, 2012 - AACR
T-regulatory cells (Tregs) are found infiltrating tumors in a vast array of tumor types, and
tumor-infiltrating Tregs are often associated with a poor clinical outcome. Tregs are potent …
