Lipid Accumulation in Peripheral Blood Dendritic Cells and Anticancer Immunity in Patients with Lung Cancer
Figure 1
Peripheral blood dendritic cell (DC) count. After adding monoclonal antibody, peripheral blood samples were hemolyzed, and cell immobilization was conducted. HLA-DR(+) and Lineage-1(−) DC fractions were identified using a FACSCalibur, and the number of cells per 200,000 leukocytes was analyzed. Significant differences were observed between the stage I + II lung cancer patients and the controls () and between the stage III + IV lung cancer patients and the controls (). Horizontal lines represent the means, and vertical lines represent the standard deviation.
