FMRP is regulated by Myc and is highly expressed in a variety of human and mouse tumor tissues.FMRP recruits Treg and M2 macrophages to form an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment by IL3, PROS1 and exosomes.FMRP-KO up-regulates tumor cell secretion of CCL7, which directly activates and recruits CD8+ T cells.FMRP-KO recruits CCR5 and CXCR4 receptor-positive CD8 T cells indirectly by promoting M1 macrophages to secrete CCL5, CXCL9, and CXCL10.
