Noncanonical CD11b on CD8+ T cells promotes cytotoxic effector function

Cancer immunosurveillance largely relies on effector CD8+ T cells, yet surface determinants of cytotoxic competence within tumor-reactive populations remain incompletely defined. Using single-cell surface proteomics in a mouse breast cancer model, we identified a tumor-enriched subset of antigen-experienced CD8+ T cells expressing CD11b, a prototypic myeloid integrin. CD11b CD8 T cells were…
