Th17 cells are involved in the local control of tumor progression in primary intraocular lymphoma.

<h4>Background</h4>Th17 cells play an important role in the pathogenesis of many autoimmune diseases, but despite some reports of their antitumor properties, too little is known about their presence and role in cancers. Specifically, knowledge is sparse about the relation of Th17 to lymp...
