🥳New Discovery in #Nature: Cancer Cells Evade Immune Attack via Mitochondrial Transfer

Cancer cells evade the immune system by transferring mitochondria with #mtDNA mutations to TILs. The presence of mtDNA mutations predicts a poor prognosis for patients with #melanoma and #NSCLC undergoing #immunotherapy.

This reveals a new mechanism of cancer immune evasion and may pave the way for new approaches in future #cancer immunotherapy!👏👏👏
