Tumor Microenvironments in Malignant Ovarian Germ Cell Tumors: MHC Class I Loss and T-Cell Exhaustion in Dysgerminoma. [PDF]
Malignant ovarian germ cell tumor subtypes exhibit distinct tumor microenvironments. Dysgerminomas harbor abundant nonexhausted T cells, with progenitor exhausted T cells present in 60% of PD‐1–positive cases. However, MHC class I expression is lost across all analyzed subtypes, suggesting that restoring class I expression in dysgerminomas may enhance ...
