Autologous CIK Cell Immunotherapy in Patients with Renal Cell Carcinoma after Radical Nephrectomy

Table 2

The patients’ phenotype of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) before and after cell culture.

Duration of cell culture (days)	CD3^+; (×10^9)	CD3^+CD4^+; (×10^9)	CD8^+; (×10^9)	CD3^+CD8^+; (×10^9)	CD3^+CD56^+; (×10^9)

The PBMCs from either day 0, before cell culture, or day 13, after cell culture, were analyzed by flow cytometry for different subtypes of T lymphocyte (𝜒±𝑆, %).
