The data obtained show that the high-level production of IL-18 and IL-1β by MAC, overexpression of VEGF-R2 in tumor (at relatively low VEGF-A production), and the high level of IFN-γ production are attributed factors contributing to the formation of a population of low-grade cells in the tumor.

Interestingly, the analysis of tumor-infiltrating CD8<sup>+</sup> T cell populations showed that (i) the relative IL-18 receptor (IL-18R) is significantly more expressed by the minority of cells with a functional phenotype (T-bet<sup>+</sup>Eomes<sup>+</sup>), than by the majority of those with the dysfunctional phenotype T-bet<sup>-</sup>Eomes<sup>+</sup> generally resident within tumors; (ii) as a consequence, the former are significantly more responsive than the latter to IL-18 stimulus in terms of IFNγ production <i>ex vivo</i>; (iii) PD-1 expression does not discriminate these two populations.
