Human naive CD8 T cells down-regulate expression of the WNT pathway transcription factors lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 and transcription factor 7 (T cell factor-1) following antigen encounter in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
The transcription factors lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 (LEF1) and transcription factor 7 (TCF7) (T cell factor-1 (TCF-1)) are downstream effectors of the WNT signaling pathway, which is a critical regulator of T cell development in the thymus.

Formation and phenotypic characterization of CD49a, CD49b and CD103 expressing CD8 T cell populations in human metastatic melanoma [PDF]
Integrins α1β1 (CD49a), α2β1 (CD49b) and αEβ7 (CD103) mediate retention of lymphocytes in peripheral tissues, and their expression is upregulated on tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) compared to circulating lymphocytes.

Immunohistochemical expression of programmed death-ligand 1 and CD8 in glioblastomas [PDF]
Background Glioblastoma is the most aggressive primary malignant brain tumor in adults and is characterized by poor prognosis. Immune evasion occurs via programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)/programmed death receptor 1 (PD-1) interaction.

Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes Predicting Long-Term Outcomes in HER2-Negative Breast Cancer Patients with Visceral Metastases [PDF]
Background: Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) were found to be associated with a better clinical outcome in specific subtypes of breast cancer. Aim: To study the association between TILs and the prognosis of Egyptian patients with HER2-negative ...

Bystander CD4+ T cells infiltrate human tumors and are phenotypically distinct
Tumor-specific T cells likely underpin effective immune checkpoint-blockade therapies. Yet, most studies focus on Treg cells and CD8+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs).

Prostaglandin E2 promotes features of replicative senescence in chronically activated human CD8+ T cells. [PDF]
Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), a pleiotropic immunomodulatory molecule, and its free radical catalyzed isoform, iso-PGE2, are frequently elevated in the context of cancer and chronic infection.
