Ramsay et al1 unravel a new mechanism of immune subversion induced by chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells to perturb chemokine-oriented migration of both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, and they propose an original cereblon-dependent effect of the immunomodulatory drug lenalidomide.

CLL cells induce adhesion and migration defects in T cells that are reversible upon lenalidomide treatment.
