CRISPR screens identify targets to rescue age-related T cell dysfunction in cancer.

Immune aging impairs T cell-mediated tumor control as well as cancer immunotherapy outcomes.

Immune aging impairs T cell-mediated tumor control as well as cancer immunotherapy outcomes. The most important drivers of T cell dysfunction in aged tumors remain unknown. We performed single-cell CRISPR screens to identify Dusp5 and Zfp219 as key regulators of CD8 + T cell…
