Sculpting tumor microenvironment with immune system: from immunometabolism to immunoediting

Cancer immunotherapy unleashing the power of host immunity on eliminating cancer cells represents a critical advance in cancer treatment; however, effective anti-tumor responses are largely dampened by the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Emerging studies have revealed that physiological features in the TME, including glucose deprivation, hypoxia and low pH, established by the metabolically dysregulated cancer cells restrict...
