Mitochondrial DNA released by senescent cells triggers immunosuppression in cancer

Ping Lai, Lei Liu, Nicolò Bancaro…·Andrea Alimonti

This study shows that mtDNA released by senescent cells triggers immunosuppression via PMN-MDSCs, and inhibiting this pathway enhances therapy-induced senescence in cancer.
