The chemokine CX3CL1 promotes intraperitoneal tumour growth despite enhanced T-cell recruitment in ovarian cancer by Stefanie Seitz, Tobias F. Dreyer, Christoph Stange, Katja Steiger, Dirk Wohlleber, Martina Anton, Thuý An Pham, Dominique Sauter-Peschke, Ute Reuning, Gabriele Multhoff, Wilko Weichert, Marion Kiechle, Viktor Magdolen, Holger Bronger

“…T-cell recruiting chemokines are required for a successful immune intervention in ovarian cancer, and also for the efficacy of modern anticancer agents such as PARP inhibitors. The chemokine CX3CL1 recruits tumour-suppressive T-cells into solid tumours, but also mediates cell–cell adhesions, e.g. of tumour cells, through its membrane-bound form. …”
