Abstract

The prevalence and severity of cancers in non-reproductive tissues are greater in males than females, but the sex-specific factors contributing to this remain ill described. In this issue of Immunity, Yang et al. (2022) uncover a mechanism of androgen signaling leading to an exhausted, terminally differentiated CD8+ T cell phenotype in male mice.
