Oncolytic peptide LTX-315 induces anti-pancreatic cancer immunity by targeting the ATP11B-PD-L1 axis by Meng Wang, Xing Huang, Tingbo Liang, Tianyu Tang, Gang Zhang, Minghao Lu, Zhengtao Hong, Junming Huang, Xiao Zhi

“…As regards the mechanism, ATP11B interacted with PD-L1 in a CKLF-like MARVEL transmembrane domain containing 6 (CMTM6)-dependent manner. The depletion of ATP11B promoted CMTM6-mediated lysosomal degradation of PD-L1, thus reactivating the immune microenvironment and inducing an antitumor immune response. …”
