Everybody In! No Bouncers at Tumor Gates.

Everybody In! No Bouncers at Tumor Gates. Trends Genet. 2017 Dec 22;: Authors: Vitale I, Galluzzi L Abstract Two recent genomic studies suggest that a large fraction of human tumors evolves in the presence of limited negative selection against somatic mutations. In this context, specific genetic defects enable the establishment of a hypermutant state that may constitute a target for immunotherapeutic interventions.
