Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is characterized by a deviation of the immune system that involves T cell-dependent autoantibody production. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of co-stimulatory markers on T cells in this disease. Twenty-eight patients with SLE as defined by the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) criteria and 11 healthy controls were included into the study. Eleven patients had biopsy-proven lupus nephritis while 17 patients had no clinical evidence of lupus nephritis. Clinical disease activity was assessed according to the systemic lupus erythematosus disease index (SLEDAI). CD4+ T cell populations in the peripheral blood were analysed for the expression of co-stimulatory markers CD45RO, CD70, CD80, CD86, CD137, CD137L, CD134, CD152, CD154 and ICOS. SLE patients showed an increased frequency of peripheral CD4+ T cells expressing high levels of CD80, CD86 and CD134 compared to healthy controls (7.1 +/- 1.5% versus 1.7 +/- 0.9%; P < 0.005; 2.3 +/- 0.4% versus 1.0 +/- 0.2%; P = 0.008, 20.2 +/- 2.0% versus 10.6 +/- 1.9%; P < 0.005, respectively). Significantly higher levels of CD80 on CD4+ T cells were detected in SLE patients with lupus nephritis compared to patients without nephritis (11.9 +/- 3.3% versus 4.0 +/- 0.7%; P < 0.005). There was an increased presence of CD134+ CD4+ cells in SLE patients with lupus nephritis (27.5 +/- 4.0% versus 15.5 +/- 1.3%; P < 0.005). CD80 and CD134 expression was significantly correlated with SLEDAI (r = 0.42, P = 0.03; r = 0.56, P < 0.005). Co-stimulatory molecules on CD4+ T cells are associated with renal disease and disease activity in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. 相似文献

Although multiple immune cells participate in the innate and adaptive immune response against Candida albicans, the elucidation of cellular and inflammation kinetics may be a promising strategy to decipher events propitious to infection eradication. We used an in vitro Candida-human leucocyte coculture approach to study the dynamics of rare CD4+CD8+ double positive T lymphocytes (DP T) produced in response to this fungus. Our results highlight the presence of two phenotypically distinct subsets of DP T cells: CD4hiCD8lo and CD4loCD8hi, and that the different ratio of these cells correlates with infection outcome. The ratio of CD4hiCD8lo over CD4loCD8hi by day 6 was significantly higher in controlled infections and decreased when infection persisted due to a significant increase in the proportion of CD4loCD8hi. When infection was controlled, CD4hiCD8lo T cells secreted IFNγ, TNFα, IL-4 and IL-10 cytokines two days after challenge. By day 2, under conditions of persistent infection, CD4hiCD8lo and CD4loCD8hi T cells secreted significant levels of IL-4 and IL-10, respectively, compared to uninfected cultures. Frequency kinetics and original cytokine profiles detailed in this work indicate that DP T cells could participate in the adaptive immune response to C. albicans. 相似文献

CD4+CD25+调节性T细胞与系统性红斑狼疮病情活动性关系的研究 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
目的:检测系统性红斑狼疮患者外周血CD4^+CD25^+、CD4^+CD8^+调节性T细胞亚群,探讨其与疾病活动性、肾脏损伤、血清抗ds-DNA抗体及免疫球蛋白和补体C3含量的关系。方法:采用流式细胞术检测北京协和医院住院和门诊SLE患者(n=37)外周血CD4^+CD25^+T、CD4^+CD8^+T细胞群比例,以15例RA和15例SS组成自身免疫性疾病对照,30例健康体检者作为正常对照,观察调节性T细胞亚群与SLE患者疾病活动性指标SLEDAI、IgG、C3及血清抗ds-DNA抗体的关系。结果:①疾病活动期SLE患者外周血CD4^+CD25^+调节性T细胞群比例显著低于正常对照组(P〈0.01),疾病稳定期和风湿性疾病对照组与正常对照组结果差异无统计学意义。疾病活动期和稳定期SLE患者CD4+CD8+T细胞群比例都略高于正常对照组,但未发现结果差异有统计学意义(P〉0.05)。②疾病活动期SLE患者外周血CD4^+CD25^+T细胞比例及CD4^+CD25^+/CD4^+值显著低于稳定期患者(P〈0.01)。SLE患者外周血CD4^+CD25^+/CD4^+值与SLEDAI、补体C3呈低度相关(r分别为-0.491、0.368,P〈0.05),CD4^+CD25^+T细胞数量与SLEDAI呈负相关(r=-0.578,P〈0.05)。③SLE并发肾病组外周血CD4^+CD25^+T细胞群比例及CD4^+CD25^+/CD4^+值显著低于非肾病组(P〈0.01;P〈0.05)。同一SLE患者治疗前后CD3^+CD4^-CD8^-细胞和NK细胞降低,CD4^+CD25^+细胞、CD4^+CD25^+/CD4^+值及CD8^+T细胞增加,但未发现这些结果差异有统计学意义。本次研究未发现NK细胞、CD4^+CD8+T细胞、CD4^+CD25^+T细胞群比例在ds-DNA+组与ds-DNA-组之间结果差异有统计学意义。结论:SLE患者外周血CD4^+CD25^+T细胞群比例与SLEDAI成负相关,与肾脏的损害也有密切关系,但与血清抗ds-DNA抗体产生的关系不明显。活动期SLE患者外周血CD4^+CD25^+T细胞减少,稳定期CD4^+CD25^+T细胞比例回升,因此推测CD4^+CD25^+T细胞的变化可能是导致疾病发生和病情发展及相关器官(如肾脏)损伤的关键环节之一。 相似文献

Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a major immunoregulatory cytokine and has a multitude of immunomodulatory effects in the immune system. In this study, we have examined the secretion andin vitro function of IL-10 in B cell hyperactivity in antibody production in two common autoimmune diseases, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). IL-10 was detectable in serum of all active SLE and serum and synovial fluid samples of all RA patients but in none of the normal controls. B cells and CD4+CD45RO+ memory T cells secreted highly enhanced levels of IL-10 in SLE and RA versus normals. Increased IgM and IgG production by B cells-CD4+CD45RO+ T cells in SLE and RA was IL-10 dependent, since neutralization of IL-10 cytokine by anti-IL-10 antibody drastically reduced Ig synthesis in these coculture experiments. B cell hyperactivity in autoantibody production in SLE and RA may be a function of IL-10-dependent CD4+CD45RO+ Th2 cell activation. Therefore, IL-10 may play an important role in highly disturbed immune system and B cell-T cell function in these immune disorders. 相似文献

B‐lymphocyte hyperactivity in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is T‐cell‐dependent, and CD4+ T‐cell activation is essential to SLE pathogenesis. However, the mechanism of the deregulation of CD4+ T cells in SLE is largely unknown. T‐cell immunoglobulin and ITIM domain (TIGIT) is a new inhibitory receptor preferentially expressed on activated CD4+ T cells. Here, we address the role of TIGIT in the pathogenesis of SLE. Our results showed that TIGIT expression on CD4+ T cells was significantly elevated in patients with SLE and highly correlated with the activity of the disease. TIGIT+ CD4+ T cells from both healthy individuals and patients with SLE had a more activated phenotype than TIGIT− CD4+ T cells. In contrast, the activation, proliferation and cytokine production potential of TIGIT+ CD4+ T cells were significantly lower than those of TIGIT− CD4+ T cells. Furthermore, activation of the TIGIT pathway by using CD155 could substantially down‐regulate the activities of CD4+ T cells from SLE patients in vitro, and in vivo administration of CD155 resulted in a delayed development of SLE in MRL/lpr mice. TIGIT is a powerful negative regulator of CD4+ T cells in SLE, which suggests that the TIGIT signalling pathway may be used as a potential therapeutic target for treating this disease. 相似文献

MRL/lpr mice develop a systemic autoimmune disease similar to systemic lupus erythematosus in humans. The mice show progressive lymphadenopathy due to the accumulation of an unusual population of CD4?8?(DN) B220+ αβ+ T cells. We bred MRL/lpr mice with mice lacking CD4+ or CD8+ T cells by gene targeting via homologous recombination in embryonal stem cells to determine the roles of these cells in the autoimmune disease. No difference in survival or autoantibody levels was noted between CD8-/- lpr and littermate controls. Interestingly, these CD8-/- lpr mice have a reduced level of B220+ DN T cells despite the fact that the degree of lymphadenopathy was unaltered. CD4-/- lpr mice had a diminished autoimmune disease with a reduction in autoantibody production and skin vasculitits, and increased survival compared to littermate controls. However, CD4-/- lpr mice had an enhanced splenomegaly that developed massively by 16–20 weeks of age (5 to 8 greater than lpr control mice) due to the accumulation of DN B220+ T cells. In addition, there were no differences in peripheral lymph node enlargement, although the proportion of DN B220+ T cells was about twofold higher in the CD4-/- lpr mice. These cells were phenotypically identical to the DN population in control lpr mice, indicating that the accumulating DN T cells can be dissociated from the autoimmune disease in these mice. Collectively, our results reveal that the autoimmune disease is dependent on CD4+, but not CD8+ T cells, and that many of the B220+ DN T cells traverse a CD8 developmental pathway. 相似文献

Inverse correlation between CD4+ regulatory T-cell population and autoantibody levels in paediatric patients with systemic lupus erythematosus 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
CD4(+) CD25(+) regulatory T cells (Tregs) are critical in maintaining self-tolerance and preventing organ-specific autoimmunity. Their role in paediatric systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disease characterized by inappropriate regulation of hyperactivated B and T cells, has not been clearly defined. Using flow cytometry to determine cell populations and real-time polymerase chain reaction to assay mRNA expression for FOXP3, CTLA-4, and GITR, we characterized CD4(+) CD25(+) T cells in paediatric SLE patients and healthy subjects. The frequency of CD4(+) CD25(+) Tregs was significantly decreased in patients with active SLE compared with patients with inactive SLE and with controls (7.27% +/- 2.50%, 9.59% +/- 2.80% and 9.78% +/- 2.11%, respectively; P = 0.027 and P < 0.001, respectively), and was inversely correlated with disease activity, as assessed with the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index 2000 scores (r = -0.59, P = 0.001) and serum anti-double-stranded DNA levels (r = -0.65, P < 0.001). Our preliminary investigations found elevated surface expression of GITR in CD4(+) CD25(+) T cells, elevated mRNA expression of CTLA-4 in CD4(+) T cells and higher amounts of mRNA expression for FOXP3 in CD4(+) cells in patients with active SLE compared with patients with inactive disease and controls. We demonstrated reduced CD4(+) CD25(+) Treg levels were inversely correlated with disease activity, indicating a defective Treg population in paediatric SLE patients. The differences in the expression of FOXP3, CTLA-4 and GITR imply the possible role of CD4(+) Tregs in the pathogenesis of SLE. 相似文献

Routine T cells phenotyping occasionally reveals a CD4+CD8dim T cell subset with an apparently homogeneous dot plot. The aim
of this study was to elucidate their immunological significance from analysis of 31 healthy donors, 21 elderly and 220 immune
deficient patients. CD4+CD8dim T cells expressed reduced levels of CD8 (11–17,000 compared to 96–128,000 mol/cell on CD8+
T Cells). CD4 was expressed at the same level as on CD4+ T cells. The occurrence of raised CD4+CD8dim T cells (> 20 cells/μL)
was similar in kidney transplant recipients (28.4%) and healthy donors (26%). It was somewhat lower in HIV+ patients (19.7%)
possibly due to virally induced CD4+ T lymphopenia. However, an age effect is possible because the occurrence was raised (33.3%)
in 70 volunteers (chi2 test NS). On the other hand, the size of the CD4+CD8dim subset was not correlated with age. CD4+CD8dim
T cells did not express the activation markers CD69 (n = 220) or CD25 (n = 10) and expressed the homodimeric (αα) isoform of CD8, suggesting they are related to mucosal immunity (MALT). We selected
29 patients with unambiguous dot plots. In 26 of them one predominant TCR Vβ clonotype was expressed on 18 to 94% of CD4+CD8dim
T cells and never on more than 10% of conventional T cells. The predominant clonotypes were Vβ8 (n = 5), Vβ2 (n = 4), Vβ13.1 and Vβ 21 (n = 3 each). Whether this reveals a chronic stimulation or an emerging lymphoproliferative disorder must be elucidated. We
propose to name this entity: “Oligoclonal Clonopathy of Undetermined Significance (OCUS).”

Background and Objective A subset of IL-4 producing CD8+ T cells was recently identified in HIV patients. Based on these findings we examined whether IL-4 producing CD8+ T cells would also be present in allergic patients and what would be the functional relevance of this T-cell population. Methods We investigated the role of CD8+ T cells in IgE production of allergic diseases by analysing the cytokine profile of individual CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Results In allergic patients about twice as many CD4+ T cells and six times as many CD8+ T cells produced IL-4 as in non-allergic controls. In contrast the frequency of IFNγ+ T-cell subsets did not significantly differ between the allergic and non-allergic individuals. The frequency of 1L4+CD8+ T cells correlated with the level of serum IgE. Coculture experiments with T cells or purified CD8+ T cells together with autologous B cells indicated that CD8+ T cells enhanced IgE in vitro, but not IgM production, even when they were physically separated from B cells. This effect could be partially blocked by addition of an IL-4 binding protein, a soluble IL-4 receptor indicating that lL-4 is involved in CD8+ T-cell mediated IgE production. Conclusions These data indicate a positive role of IL-4 secreting CD8+ T cells in IgE regulation in allergic patients. 相似文献

Defective suppression of Th2 cytokines by CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T cells in birch allergics during birch pollen season 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

BACKGROUND: CD4(+)CD25+ regulatory T cells suppress proliferation and cytokine production by human T cells both to self-antigens and exogenous antigens. Absence of these cells in human newborns leads to multiple autoimmune and inflammatory disorders together with elevated IgE levels. However, their role in human allergic disease is still unclear. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the capacity of CD4(+)CD25+ regulatory T cells to suppress proliferation and cytokine production outside and during birch-pollen season in birch-allergic patients relative to non-allergic controls. METHODS: CD4+ cells were obtained from blood of 13 birch-allergic patients and six non-allergic controls outside pollen season and from 10 birch-allergic patients and 10 non-allergic controls during birch-pollen season. CD25+ and CD25- fractions were purified with magnetic beads and cell fractions, alone or together in various ratios, were cultured with antigen-presenting cells and birch-pollen extract or anti-CD3 antibody. Proliferation and levels of IFN-gamma, IL-13, IL-5 and IL-10 were measured by thymidin incorporation and ELISA, respectively. Numbers of CD25+ cells were analysed by flow cytometry. RESULTS: CD4(+)CD25+ regulatory T cells from both allergics and non-allergics potently suppressed T cell proliferation to birch allergen both outside and during birch-pollen season. However, during season CD4(+)CD25+ regulatory T cells from allergic patients but not from non-allergic controls were defective in down-regulating birch pollen induced IL-13 and IL-5 production, while their capacity to suppress IFN-gamma production was retained. In contrast, outside pollen season the regulatory cells of both allergics and non-allergic controls were able to inhibit T-helper 2 cytokine production. CONCLUSION: This is the first study to show differential suppression of Th1 and Th2 cytokines, with CD4(+)CD25+ regulatory T cells from birch-pollen-allergic patients being unable to down-regulate Th2, but not Th1 responses during birch-pollen season. 相似文献

CD28 on T cells provides a potent costimulatory signal for T cell activation. Down-regulation of CD28 on peripheral T cells has been reported in certain clinical conditions, but full studies on the mechanism and biological significance have not been performed. Our extensive phenotype analysis of peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from SLE patients revealed that the absolute number of CD28+ T cells of both CD4 and CD8 phenotypes was selectively decreased, while that of CD28− T cells was maintained. CD28+ T cells from SLE patients exhibited mostly normal proliferative responses to both CD28-dependent and -independent stimulations. In contrast, CD28− T cells were hyporesponsive to anti-CD3 stimulation in both SLE and normal controls. These results implied that the selective decrease of CD28+ T cells in SLE does not result from a hyporesponsiveness of CD28+ T cells. To investigate the reason for the selective loss of CD28+ T cells, we determined the appearance of apoptotic cells in culture with or without anti-CD3 stimulation. Apoptotic cells defined by merocyanine (MC)540 were gradually increased from 12 h to 24 h. Anti-CD3-induced apoptosis of CD28+ T cells was significantly accelerated in SLE, whereas apoptosis of CD28− T cells was hardly detected in both SLE and normal controls. Comparative analysis between CD28+ and CD28− T cells on CD95 (Fas) and Bcl-2 expression, which are related to activation-induced cell death (AICD), did not show a major difference, although CTLA4, which has been demonstrated to transmit an apoptosis-inducing signal, was expressed only on CD28+ T cells. Our results suggest that CD28-mediated costimulation influences T cell susceptibility to AICD and may be involved in T cell lymphopenia in SLE. 相似文献

Summary: Thymic derived naturally occurring CD25+CD4+ T regulatory cells (Tregs) suppress immune responses, including transplantation. Here we discuss the capacity of dendritic cells (DCs) to expand antigen‐specific Tregs, particularly polyclonal Tregs directed to alloantigens. Initial studies have shown that mature DCs are specialized antigen‐presenting cells (APCs) for expanding antigen‐specific CD25+ CD4+ Tregs from TCR transgenic mice. When triggered by specific antigen, these Tregs act back on immature DCs to block the upregulation of CD80 and CD86 costimulatory molecules. More recently, DCs have been used to expand alloantigen‐specific CD25+CD4+ Tregs from the polyclonal repertoire in the presence of interleukin‐2 (IL‐2). Allogeneic DCs are much more effective than allogeneic spleen cells for expanding CD25+CD4+ Tregs. The DC‐expanded Tregs continue to express high levels of Foxp3, even without supplemental IL‐2, whereas spleen cells poorly sustain Foxp3 expression. When suppressive activity is tested, relatively small numbers of DC‐expanded CD25+CD4+ Tregs exert antigen‐specific suppression in the mixed leukocyte reaction (MLR), blocking immune responses to the original stimulating strain 10 times more effectively than to third party stimulating cells. DC‐expanded Tregs also retard graft versus host disease (GVHD) across full major histocompatibility complex (MHC) barriers. In vitro and in vivo, the alloantigen‐specific CD25+CD4+ Tregs are much more effective suppressors of transplantation reactions than polyclonal populations. We suggest that the expansion of Tregs from a polyclonal repertoire via antigen‐presenting DCs will provide a means for antigen‐specific control of unwanted immune reactions. 相似文献

Cardiovascular disease due to accelerated atherosclerosis is the leading cause of death in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Noteworthy, accelerated atherosclerosis in SLE patients appears to be independant of classical Framingham risk factors. This suggests that aggravated atherosclerosis in SLE patients may be a result of increased inflammation and altered immune responses. However, the mechanisms that mediate the acceleration of atherosclerosis in SLE remain elusive. Based on experimental data which includes both humans (SLE patients and control subjects) and rodents (ApoE−/− mice), we herein propose a multi-step model in which the immune dysfunction associated with SLE (i.e. high level of IFN-α production by TLR 9-stimulated pDCs) is associated with, first, an increased frequency of circulating pro inflammatory CD4+CXCR3+ T cells; second, an increased production of CXCR3 ligands by endothelial cells; third, an increased recruitment of pro-inflammatory CD4+CXCR3+ T cells into the arterial wall, and fourth, the development of atherosclerosis. In showing how SLE may promote accelerated atherosclerosis, our model also points to hypotheses for potential interventions, such as pDCs-targeted therapy, that might be studied in the future. 相似文献

Tissue-resident memory CD8+ T cells (TRM) localize to barrier tissues and mediate local protection against reinvading pathogens. Circulating central memory (TCM) and effector memory CD8+ T cells (TEM) also contribute to tissue recall responses, but their potential to form mucosal TRM remains unclear. Here, we employed adoptive transfer and lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus reinfection models to specifically assess secondary responses of TCM and TEM at mucosal sites. Donor TCM and TEM exhibited robust systemic recall responses, but only limited accumulation in the small intestine, consistent with reduced expression of tissue-homing and -retention molecules. Murine and human circulating memory T cells also exhibited limited CD103 upregulation following TGF-β stimulation. Upon pathogen clearance, TCM and TEM readily gave rise to secondary TEM. TCM also formed secondary central memory in lymphoid tissues and TRM in internal tissues, for example, the liver. Both TCM and TEM failed to substantially contribute to resident mucosal memory in the small intestine, while activated intestinal TRM, but not liver TRM, efficiently reformed CD103+ TRM. Our findings demonstrate that circulating TCM and TEM are limited in generating mucosal TRM upon reinfection. This may pose important implications on cell therapy and vaccination strategies employing memory CD8+ T cells for protection at mucosal sites. 相似文献

采用五色流式细胞术检测系统性红斑狼疮(systemic lupus erythematosus,SLE)患者和健康对照组的CD4+Foxp3+T细胞及其细胞亚群;以CFSE染色法分析SLE患者和健康对照组CD4+Foxp3+T细胞各亚群的免疫抑制功能。结果发现SLE组CD4+Foxp3+T细胞(占CD4+T细胞的比例)显著高于对照组(12.03%±1.523%vs 6.410%±0.4353%,t=3.790,P<0.01),但其CD4+T细胞的增殖却比对照组活跃(PI:4.052%±0.4004%vs 2.528%±0.2322%,t=3.293,P<0.05)。根据Foxp3和CD45RA表达强度的差异,可将CD4+Foxp3+T细胞清晰地分成3个亚群:CD45RA+Foxp3low(Ⅰ区)细胞、CD45RA-Foxp3high(Ⅱ区)细胞和CD45RA-Foxp3low(Ⅲ区)细胞,SLE组的Ⅰ区和Ⅲ区细胞数量显著增加(分别为t=2.123,P<0.05;t=3.462,P<0.01),而Ⅱ区细胞与对照组之间差异无统计学意义(0.6056%±0.1879%vs0.6571%±0.1764%,t=0.1999,P>0.05)。SLE患者和健康对照者的Ⅰ区和Ⅱ区细胞在体外均具有免疫抑制功能,而Ⅲ区细胞不具有该功能。SLE患者Ⅰ区细胞的免疫抑制能力弱于对照组(t=2.994,P<0.05),而Ⅱ区细胞和Ⅲ区细胞与对照组之间差异均无统计学意义。提示,SLE患者CD4+Foxp3+T细胞比例升高而免疫抑制功能下降,可能是两大原因造成了这种数量和功能的不一致性:①SLE患者CD4+Foxp3+T细胞数量增加主要由于Ⅲ区细胞增多所致,而这区细胞不具有免疫抑制功能;②在SLE患者,具有免疫抑制功能的Ⅰ区细胞的抑制能力明显减弱。 相似文献

The immune microenvironment, especially T cell infiltration, is related to the occurrence and prognosis of breast carcinoma.ObjectiveThis study investigated the gene expression patterns associated with tumor-infiltrating CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in invasive breast carcinomas.MethodsThe gene expression data and corresponding clinical phenotype data from the Cancer Genome Atlas Breast Invasive Carcinoma (TCGA-BRCA) were downloaded. The stromal and immune score were calculated using ESTIMATE. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) with a high vs. low stromal score and a high vs. low immune score were screened and then functionally enriched. The tumor-infiltrating immune cells were investigated using the Cibersort algorithm, and the CD4+ and CD8+ T cell-related genes were identified using a Spearman correlation test of infiltrating abundance with the DEGs. Moreover, the miRNA-mRNA pairs and lncRNA-miRNA pairs were predicted to construct the competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNA) network. Kaplan-Meier (K-M) survival curves were also plotted.ResultsIn total, 478 DEGs with a high vs. low stromal score and 796 DEGs with a high vs. low immune score were identified. In addition, 39 CD4+ T cell-related genes and 78 CD8+ T cell-related genes were identified; of these, 14 genes were significantly associated with the prognosis of BRCA patients. Moreover, for CD4+ T cell-related genes, the chr22-38_28785274-29006793.1–miR-34a/c-5p–CAPN6 axis was identified from the ceRNA network, whereas the chr22-38_28785274-29006793.1–miR-494-3p–SLC9A7 axis was identified for CD8+ T cell-related genes.ConclusionsThe chr22-38_28785274-29006793.1–miR-34a/c-5p–CAPN6 axis and the chr22-38_28785274-29006793.1–miR-494-3p–SLC9A7 axis might regulate cellular activities associated with CD4+ and CD8+ T cell infiltration, respectively, in BRCA. 相似文献
