Stem cell memory T (T) and central memory T (T) cells can rapidly differentiate into effector memory (T) and terminal effector (T) T cells, and have the most potential for immunotherapy. In this study, we found that the frequency of T and T cells in the CD8+ population dramatically decreased together with increases in T and T cells, particularly in younger patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (< 60 years). These alterations persisted in patients who achieved complete remission after chemotherapy. The decrease in T and T together with the increase in differentiated T and T subsets in CD8+ T cells may explain the reduced T cell response and subdued anti-leukemia capacity in AML patients.
干细胞记忆 T (T) 和中央记忆 T (T) 细胞可迅速分化为效应记忆 (T) 和终末效应 (T) T 细胞,并且在免疫治疗方面具有最大的潜力。在这项研究中,我们发现 CD8+ 群体中的 T 和 T 细胞的频率与 T 和 T 细胞的增加一起急剧下降,尤其是在年轻的急性髓细胞白血病 (AML) 患者中(<60 岁)。这些改变在化疗后达到完全缓解的患者中仍然存在。CD8+ T 细胞中 T 和 T 的减少以及分化的 T 和 T 亚群的增加可能解释了 AML 患者 T 细胞反应降低和抗白血病能力减弱的原因。
