The primary challenges in CD19-specific chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CD19 CAR T) therapy for patients with refractory/relapsed B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (r/r B-ALL) are non-response and relapse; it is urgent to reveal these mechanisms. Neutrophils play a critical role the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME), which can hinder T efficacy. Our previous research identified subset of neutrophils special phenotype (CD14-CD10-CD45-HLA-DR-SSC++, termed CD10- neuts),...
