FGL2 promotes tumor progression in the CNS by suppressing CD103+ dendritic cell differentiation

Fibrinogen-like protein 2 (FGL2) mediates immune suppression in glioblastoma (GBM). Here, the authors show that FGL-2 expressed by GBM cancer cells acts by suppressing the differentiation of CD103+ DC cells required to activate the anti-tumor CD8+ T cell response via blocking GM-CSF signalling at NF...
