Tumour growth involves the activation of inhibitory signals associated with the immune response, also known as immune checkpoints, including PD-1/PD-L1 (programmed death 1/programmed death ligand 1), CTLA-4 (cytotoxic T cell antigen 4), TIGIT (T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains), and others. Here, TIGIT is linked to neoplasm.
