Abstract
Intratumoral CD8+ T cells commonly display a dysfunctional state, however it remains unclear whether tumor cell metabolism actively promotes T-cell exhaustion. Here, the authors show that the tumor methionine recycling pathway has a central role in promoting T-cell dysfunction in hepatocellular carcinoma, contributing to tumor immune evasion.
