Abstract

Lung cancer, classically discovered at an advanced and non-operable stage, is the leading cause of cancer death. Advances in anti-tumor immunotherapy have changed the prognosis of this pathology by positioning this approach as a central element of therapy. Nevertheless, the five-year survival, all stages confused, remains less than 20% and it is therefore necessary to better understand the pathophysiology of this disease in order to identify new therapeutic approaches. My PhD host laboratory has recently shown that the purinergic receptor P2RX7 restricts tumor development in a murine model by orchestrating an anti-tumor immune response. The expression of P2RX7 has been shown in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) but its function has never been stu...
