  schema:description "T cells that see their target for weeks on end without winning gradually shut down: they raise a set of brakes (PD-1, LAG-3, TIM-3, TIGIT), lose their ability to kill, and eventually lock this state into their DNA. Checkpoint drugs rescue the ones that are only partly exhausted; the terminally exhausted are beyond reach."@en ;
