T cell exhaustion refers to the impaired state of CD8 + T cells, which can identify and eliminate tumor cells, leading to a diminished response against tumor cells [66, 67] Dysfunctional CD8 + Tex cells in the tumor microenvironment exhibit the expression of immune co-inhibitory receptors, including LAG3, CD160, CTLA4, and TIGIT [68, 69]. The gene discussed is CD160; the disease is neoplasm.
