Organ-Specific Immune Response Controls Leptomeningeal Metastases
Major Finding: The leptomeningeal antitumor immune response is dependent on natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxic activity.Concept: Leptomeningeal IFNγ stimulates cytokine production by dendritic cells to promote NK cell activation.Impact: Targeting IFNγ signaling may augment the immune response against leptomeningeal metastases.
