The Dendritic Cell-Regulatory T Lymphocyte Crosstalk Contributes to Tumor-Induced Tolerance
Figure 1
Bidirectional communications between Treg and tolerogenic DCs in cancer. Tumor-derived factors can promote the differentiation of immature DCs and naïve T cells into tolerogenic DCs and Treg. Tolerogenic DCs contribute to the generation of Treg by various mechanisms. In turn, Treg participate in tumor-induced tolerance by restraining DC maturation and fostering the accumulation of tolerogenic DCs.
