The Ratios of CD8+ T Cells to CD4+CD25+ FOXP3+ and FOXP3- T Cells Correlate with Poor Clinical Outcome in Human Serous Ovarian Cancer

Abstract excerpt

Ovarian cancer is an immune reactive malignancy with a complex immune suppressive network that blunts successful immune eradication. This suppressive microenvironment may be mediated by recruitment or induction of CD4(+) regulatory T cells (Tregs). Our study sought to investigate the association of tumor-infiltrating CD4(+)CD25(+)FOXP3(+) Tregs, and other immune factors, with clinical outcome in serous ovarian...
