Neoantigens elicit T cell responses in breast cancer
Abstract Neoantigens are tumour-specific antigens that arise from non-synonymous mutations in tumour cells. However, their effect on immune responses in the tumour microenvironment remains unclear in breast cancer. We performed whole exome and RNA sequencing of 31 fresh breast cancer tissues and neo...
