Cell-autonomous immune gene expression is repressed in pulmonary neuroendocrine cells and small cell lung cancer

Ling Cai et al. used transcriptomic profiling data of healthy lung, patient-derived small cell lung cancer cell lines, xenografts, and primary tumors to examine a link between neuroendocrine (NE) signatures and immune gene expression. Their findings suggest that cell-autonomous immune gene repressio...
