Abstract

A Cell article reports that lymph node metastases can suppress the immune system, thereby promoting further cancer spread in mouse models; this is corroborated in patients as described in a letter in this issue of Cancer Cell. The lymph node thus actively generates a cancer-permissive environment and is an untapped target to manipulate the immune system.<br />Competing Interests: Declaration of interests The authors declare no competing interests.<br /> (Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Inc.
