Abstract
In this issue of Cancer Cell, Kumagai etal. reveal lactic acid as a mediator of checkpoint blockade resistance. Tumor-derived lactic acid promotes T regulatory cell (Treg) activity and impairs CD8+ Tcell function. PD-1 blockade synergizes with lactic acid to enhance Treg suppression and impede antitumor immunity.
