Phenotypic T cell exhaustion in a murine model of bacterial infection in the setting of pre-existing malignancy.

PLoS ONE, 2014
While much of cancer immunology research has focused on anti-tumor immunity both systemically and within the tumor microenvironment, little is known about the impact of pre-existing malignancy on pathogen-specific immune responses.
