Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: A new emerged cancer treatment utilizes intrinsic immune surveillance mechanism that is silenced by those malicious cells. Hence, studies of tumor infiltrating lymphocyte populations (TILs) are key to the success of advanced treatments. In addition to laboratory methods such as immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry, in silico gene expression deconvolution methods are available for analyses of...
