HERA-GITRL activates T cells and promotes anti-tumor efficacy independent of FcγR-binding functionality

Abstract Background Glucocorticoid-induced TNFR-related protein (TNFRSF18, GITR, CD357), expressed by T cells, and its ligand (TNFSF18, GITRL), expressed by myeloid populations, provide co-stimulatory signals that boost T cell activity.
