Researchers have pinpointed a molecule that may be an important player in finding new ways to fight cancer. A team of researchers reports that the molecule CD103 is key to the long-term residence of T cells in the skin and to their anti-tumor function. This finding supplements the groundbreaking discovery reported in the same article, that T cells residing in the skin are responsible for a potent anti-tumor response against melanoma.
