T cell exhaustion in breast tumours remains to be fully characterised. Here, single cell transcriptomics and imaging mass cytometry analysis of luminal breast tumours with or without exhausted T cells suggests distinct patterns of PD-1 and CXCL13 expression in T cells, and of MHC-I, but not PD-L1, expression in tumour cells.
