LC3B+ puncta within malignant cells positively correlate with the intratumoral abundance of CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes, yet negatively correlate with the frequency of local FOXP3+ regulatory T cells and CD68+ tumor-associated macrophages, resulting in an improvement of CD8+/FOXP+ or CD8+/CD68+ ratios %K Autophagy %K breast cancer %K LC3 %K lymphocytes %K macrophages %K Treg cells. %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4938361/
