TLR8 agonists remodel the tumor immune microenvironment through PF4-dependent T cell recruitment and ancillary mechanisms
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Pattern Recognition Receptors (PRRs) modulate tumor immune microenvironments (TIME), but their comparative efficacy remains unclear. Platelet factor 4 (PF4/CXCL4) exhibits paradoxical roles in cancer, and its regulation by PRRs remains unexplored. We systematically evaluated PRR agonists to identify optimal TIME modulators and elucidate PF4’s role. TLR8 agonists optimally remodel TIME by activating PF4-dependent T cell recruitment and engaging PF4-independent ancillary mechanisms. Context-dependent PF4 induction resolves its dual roles in cancer. These findings position TLR8 agonists as promising partners for immunotherapy.
