Identification of DLK1, a Notch ligand, as an immunotherapeutic target and regulator of tumor cell plasticity and chemoresistance in adrenocortical carcinoma

Nai-Yun Sun, Suresh Kumar, Yoo Sun Kim…·Nitin Roper

This paper identifies DLK1 as a novel immunotherapeutic target in adrenocortical carcinoma, showing it regulates tumor cell plasticity and chemoresistance, and demonstrates the efficacy of a DLK1-targeting antibody-drug conjugate.
