Abstract: Myeloid-derived suppressor cells(MDSCs)are a heterogeneous population of myeloid derived cells Which were amplified in pathological status,which is characterized as negatively regulating the anti-tumor immune response with the result of promoting tumorigenesis and cancer development.It is a promising strategy to enhance the effect of cancer immunotherapy through blocking the immunosuppressive pathway of MDSCs.
