    Résumé

    Glucocorticoids mediate potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. A chronic elevation of the endogenous glucocorticoid tonus subsequent to mental stress, as well as continuous treatment with exogenous glucocorticoids, activate an immunosuppressive transcription factor, TSC22D3, in dendritic cells, causing the subversion of cancer therapy-elicited antineoplastic immune responses and subsequent therapeutic failure.
