Profiling of CD4+, CD8+, and CD4+CD25+CD45RO+FoxP3+ T Cells in Patients with Malignant Glioma Reveals Differential Expression of the Immunologic Transcriptome Compared with T Cells from Healthy Volunteers

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Analyses of T-cell mRNA expression profiles in glioblastoma multiforme has not been previously reported but may help to define and characterize the immunosuppressed phenotype in patients with this type of cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: We did microarray studies that have shown significant and fundamental differences in the expression profiles of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells and immunosuppressive...
