Measurement of IFN-γ and IL-17 were not reported in the latter work, however, molecular targeting of TGF-β production or disruption of the TGF-β pathway could not only improve host immunosurveillance but also inhibit tumor progression by upregulation of IFN-γ, and provide additional therapeutic options through manipulation of IL-17 levels. Here, TGFB1 is linked to neoplasm.
