Where this comes from

Abstract

Regulatory T cells maintain tolerance and prevent autoimmunity, but their suppressive effects can hinder immune responses against cancer. In Nature Immunology, Maj et al., 2017 report that regulatory T cells can execute these actions through the nucleoside adenosine even after cell death.
