CD103+ T Cells Eliminate Damaged Alveolar Epithelial Type II Cells Under Oxidative Stress to Prevent Lung Tumorigenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work unravels a novel function of CD103+ T cells in eradicating oxidative‐stressed somatic cells to prevent lung tumorigenesis and identifies specific CD103+ T cell‐decline as a key feature in the aged lung. This comprehensive study highlights the contribution of immuno‐dysregulation to the high incidence of aging‐associated lung cancers ...
