The significance of the CCL20→CCR6 axis in cancer processes. CCL20 is expressed in tumor cells and TAM, which can activate CCR6 on cancer cells in an autocrine manner, causing their migration and EMT. In addition, increased concentration of CCL20 in the cancer microenvironment recruits Treg and Th17 into the tumor niche and causes angiogenesis via CCR6.
