Expansion of Lymphocytes from Prostatic Adenocarcinoma and Adjacent Nonmalignant Tissue

Figure 3

CD3⁻ CD56⁺ cells are associated with reduced TIL growth, whereas CD4⁺ T cells are preferentially found in faster-growing cultures. ILC (CD3⁻CD56⁺) (a, b), CD4⁺ (c, d), CD8⁺ (e, f), and CD4⁻CD8⁻ (g, h) subsets were quantified in TIL cultures according to their rates of expansion (faster or slower). Analysis was performed for malignant and nonmalignant TIL cultures as indicated. Two-tailed Mann-Whitney tests were used for A-H.
