Peripheral T gamma lymphocytes were measured in head and neck cancer patients and controls. The percentage was significantly higher in the 59 cancer patients than in the 46 normal controls (P less than 0.001). The 12 patients with recurrent disease had elevated percentages of T gamma lymphocytes com

The expression of chromosome breakage as a response to mutagen exposure may contribute to the development of head and neck cancer. Lymphocytes from 46 previously untreated head and neck cancer patients were cultured in vitro and exposed to the radiomimetic clastogen, bleomycin. The lymphocytes were
## Abstract ## Objectives/Hypothesis: The cancer stem cell (CSC) theory concludes that a subpopulation of cancer cells, the cancer stem cells, can selfβrenew and are responsible for tumor growth. Previous studies have identified cells able to efflux Hoechst 33342 dye as the side population (SP). S
Lymphocyte phenotypes were identified by monoclonal antibodies and avidin-biotin peroxidase reagents and enumerated in tumor tissue removed from 26 patients with head and neck cancer. T lymphocytes (T11) were the predominate phenotype at the tumor margin, with twice as many helperlinducer (T4) as su
Fresh suspensions of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) from 16 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) were examined for T-cell markers including CD4 (helper-inducer), CD8 (cytotoxic-suppressor), natural killer (NK) cell, and activation surface markers using monoclonal
