Abstract A47: scRNA-seq reveals functionally distinct gd T cells in human colorectal tumors

Colorectal cancer is the third most common malignancy worldwide, with increasing numbers due to the spreading obesity epidemic and Western diet. Colorectal tumors are subclassed by mutational burden, caused by microsatellite instability (MSI). MSI-high tumors tend to induce robust T-cell responses and respond well to immunotherapy. However, microsatellite-stable (MSS) tumors lack high mutational burden and conventional T-cell recognition. While...
