Cancer Immunoediting from Immunosurveillance to Tumor Escape in Microvillus-Formed Niche: A Study of Syngeneic Orthotopic Rat Bladder Cancer Model in Comparison with Human Bladder Cancer

Cancer cells can develop an attenuated immunogenicity and/or create an immunosuppressive microenvironment to prevent tumor eradication by host immune system, the so-called “cancer immunoediting” hypothesis. The aim of the present study was to find evidence for this hypothesis by using a rat orthoto...
