The myeloid cell type I IFN system promotes antitumor immunity over pro-tumoral inflammation in cancer T-cell therapy.

Our results substantiate a complex and plastic phenotypic interconnection between melanoma and myeloid cells in the context of T-cell immunotherapy. Type I IFN signalling in myeloid cells was identified as a key regulator of the balance between antitumor immunity and disease-promoting inflammation, thus supporting the development of novel combinatorial immunotherapies targeting this immune cell compartment.
