The tumor microenvironment influences the metabolic behavior of cancer cells. Here, using Dual Ribosome Profiling, the authors uncover a cancer-stromal cell interaction under glucose starvation that increases nutrient availability, in response to type I interferon. In addition, in vivo, immune checkpoint blockade triggers metabolic constraints in T cells, reducing their proliferation and cytotoxicity.
