Open AccessHigh glucose promotes pancreatic cancer cells to escape from immune surveillance via AMPK-Bmi1-GATA2-MICA/B pathway
Modulation of cell surface expression of MHC class I chain-related protein A/B (MICA/B) has been proven to be one of the mechanisms by which tumor cells escape from NK cell-mediated killing. Abnormal metabolic...
