Abstract

The tumour microenvironment propagates stress responses in resident cells. In tumour-infiltrating natural killer (NK) cells, the HSF1 transcription factor binds to mediators of effector function, negatively regulating NK cytotoxicity. These findings provide important mechanistic insights that may enhance NK cell cancer therapy.
