Neurotrophic factor Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) is involved in bladder physiopathology. Here the authors report that mast-cell derived NGF sustains the pro-tumoral functions of ILC2s in bladder cancer (BC), showing that selective targeting of the NGF receptor TrkA improves survival and response to immune checkpoint blockade in BC models.
