While our results indicated that FIP200's autophagy-function within the ULK1-complex in tumor cells was dispensable in the regulation of TBK1 activation and CD8+ T-cell infiltration, it is worth noting that a number of studies have implicated the involvement of other autophagy genes such as ATG5 and ATG7 in the regulation of anti-tumor immunity. This evidence concerns the gene TBK1 and neoplasm.
