Effector Function Characteristics of Exhausted CD8+ T-cell in Microsatellite Stable and Unstable Gastric Cancer

Gastric cancer exhibits molecular heterogeneity, with the microsatellite instability high (MSI-H) subtype drawing attention for its distinct features. Despite a higher survival rate, MSI-H gastric cancer lack significant benefits from conventional chemotherapy. The immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), presents a potential avenue, but a deeper understanding of the tumor immune microenvironment of MSI-H gastric cancer is essential.
