FGFR3 alterations in bladder cancer stimulate serine synthesis to induce immune-inert macrophages that suppress T-cell recruitment and activation
Metabolic reprogramming of bladder cancer cells driven by mutant FGFR3 increases serine synthesis that suppresses macrophage immunostimulatory functions to generate an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, which can be overcome by targeting PI3K. Overall design: WT and mFgfr3 MB49 cancer cells were inoculated in the C57/BL6 mice, and tumors were harvested for scRNA-seq
