Epigenetic quantification of tumor-infiltrating T-lymphocytes [PDF]
The immune system plays a pivotal role in tumor establishment. However, the role of T-lymphocytes within the tumor microenvironment as major cellular component of the adaptive effector immune response and their counterpart, regulatory T-cells (Treg), responsible for suppressive immune modulation, is not completely understood.

Prognostic value of FoxP3 and CTLA-4 expression in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma.
BACKGROUND:Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes include tumor-reactive lymphocytes and regulatory T-cells. However, the prognostic value of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) remains unclear.

Regulatory T cells with multiple suppressive and potentially pro-tumor activities accumulate in human colorectal cancer [PDF]
Tregs can contribute to tumor progression by suppressing antitumor immunity. Exceptionally, in human colorectal cancer (CRC), Tregs are thought to exert beneficial roles in controlling pro-tumor chronic inflammation.

Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes Help Rein In NSCLC [PDF]
Abstract In a phase I clinical trial, tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte therapy combined with the anti–PD-1 drug nivolumab was considered safe and tolerable—and exhibited preliminary signs of efficacy—in patients with stage IV or recurrent non–small cell lung cancer.
