"These results suggest that USP18 deletion leads to CSF1R downregulation in TAMs and a decrease in pro-tumor/immunosuppressive macrophages, contributing to enhanced anti-tumor macrophage polarization, consequently promoting a Th1-dominant TME and enhancing CD8 T cell-mediated anti-tumor immunity, in agreement with previous reports."

"However, according to research by Hong et al., increased USP18 expression in tumor cells would in turn inhibit carcinogenesis, whereas decreased USP18 promotes tumor growth and lowers immunosurveillance by decreasing the exogenous synthesis of IFN-γ and the survival of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) in TME [178]."
