摘要

Cancer-immune equilibrium is a state in which low numbers of cancerous cells are kept in an occult or dormant state by the immune system for long periods.A recent study by Park et al.published in Nature found that tissue-resident CD8+ memory cells actively enforce cancer dormancy of epicutaneous melanomas.
