Extracellular adenosine in the tumor microenvironment can impair antitumor immunity by suppressing CTL responses. Inhibition of adenosine signaling stabilizes CTL–target cell conjugation and increases sublethal hit frequency, and thereby restores CTL-mediated cytotoxicity against antigenic melanoma tumors.
