RNA-binding protein HuR reprograms immune T cells and promotes oral squamous cell carcinoma by Mrinmoyee Majumder, Harinarayanan Janakiraman, Paramita Chakraborty, Anitha Vijayakumar, Sari Mayhue, Hong Yu, Toros Dincman, Romeo Martin, Elizabeth O'Quinn, Shikhar Mehrotra, Viswanathan Palanisamy

“…CRISPR/Cas9-mediated HuR deletion in mice syngeneic oral cancer cells eliminated colony formation and tumor development. HuR-KO tumors had a lower tumor volume, fewer CD4+CD25+FoxP3+ regulatory T cells, and more CD8+ T cells, suggesting that HuR may suppress the immune response during oral cancer progression. …”
