Selection of a malignant subpopulation from a colorectal cancer cell line.

abstract：:Extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKL) is marked by a profound cellular immune deficiency that may influence the capacity of T cells to extract an efficient antitumor immune response. It has been confirmed that the B7-CD28 pathway may promote tumor immune evasion by providing a negative regulatory signal. Th...
