VDAC2 Loss Induces Inflammation and Immune-Mediated Tumor Cell Killing
Major Finding: VDAC2 blocks IFNγ-mediated tumor cell killing and anticancer inflammatory immune reprogramming. Concept: Mitochondrial DNA release and subsequent STING activation mediate VDAC2 loss–induced antitumor inflammatory phenotypes. Impact: VDAC2 is a promising therapeutic target that may enhance the anticancer efficacy of immunotherapies.
