Acute SARS-CoV-2 pneumonitis with cytotoxic CD8 positive T-lymphocytes: Case report and review of the literature. [PDF]
As of October 2020, there are over 40 million confirmed cases, and more than 1 million confirmed deaths of Covid-19 worldwide. The main cause of death in hospitalized patients is a respiratory failure due to acute respiratory distress syndrome. It has been suggested that the very intense immune response induces diffuse alveolar damage that far exceeds ...

High level of EZH2 expression is linked to high density of CD8-positive T-lymphocytes and an aggressive phenotype in renal cell carcinoma. [PDF]
Abstract Purpose Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2), the catalytic part of the Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2), has a prognostic role in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and was recently shown to modulate the immune response by reducing tumor cell immunogenicity.

CD8 Positive T Lymphocyte Infiltration of Liver Metastases of Uveal Melanoma: A Case Report [PDF]
A 78-year-old Japanese man was referred for examination of multiple small nodules on his liver detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These small nodules were hyperintense on T1-weighted MRI, and were in hepatobiliary phase on gadolinium-ethoxybenzyl-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid enhanced MRI.

Intraepithelial CD8-positive T lymphocytes predict survival for patients with serous stage III ovarian carcinomas: relevance of clonal selection of T lymphocytes [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic effect of tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in serous stage III ovarian carcinoma to determine TIL clonality and to correlate this to Her2/neu expression.Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded ovarian carcinomas were examined for CD20-, CD3-, CD4- and CD8-positive lymphocytes (n=100), and for ...

Cytotoxic CD8-positive T-lymphocyte infiltration in the lungs as a histological pattern of SARS-CoV-2 pneumonitis [PDF]
Despite millions of PCR confirmed cases of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, the long-term pathophysiological changes induced by this infection in the lungs and their relationship with possible immune triggers remain incompletely understood. Acute respiratory distress syndrome and subsequent respiratory failure are

Prognostic Value of Tumour Infiltrating T-Lymphocytes (Tils) with Special Preference to CD8 Positive T-Lymphocyte in Muscle Invasive Urothelial Bladder Cancer [PDF]
Background: Bladder cancer (BC) is one of the most prevalent malignant tumours in Egypt. Several studies reported talented results using combined tri-modality therapy in muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) with transurethral resection, radiation therapy and platinum-based systemic chemotherapy.

Effector functions of CD8-positive guinea pig T lymphocytes
The response of guinea pig T lymphocytes to different stimuli was analysed with focus on the functions of CD8-positive T cells, which so far had been poorly defined in this animal model. For identification and purification of guinea pig cytotoxic T lymphocytes, three monoclonal antibodies, directed against the CD8 differentiation antigen were ...

Abstract [Background]Neutrophils are known as immune cells involved in biological defense against foreign substances. On the other hand, in the tumor microenvironment, it is said that neutrophils affect on tumor progression as a tumor-associated neutrophil (TAN). Although, TAN and other immune cells in the progression of HCC is unclear.
