Tumor cells can develop a variety of mechanisms to evade and subvert the immune system for their survival. Bland et al ., in this edition of The FEBS Journal , make the novel finding that the tumor line B16F0 can deliver mRNA/miRNA loaded exosomes to cytotoxic T lymphocytes and alter their metabolic function and interferon gamma production.
