Abstract
Cancer cells employ a variety of ways to escape the immune system. Here, the authors show that ovarian cancer cells produce small extracellular vescicles containing arginase 1 that are taken up by dendritic cells in the draining lymph nodes, resulting in inhibition of antigen-specific T-cell proliferation.
