Extended Data Fig. 5

Bio-informatic deconvolution of RNA-seq data was applied to a previously reported clinical series of 72 newly diagnosed MM patients (GSE104171), which allowed the definition of the cellular composition of the BM microenvironment34,35. a) These studies confirmed the presence of the MM immunological subgroups, which divided the patients into two immune categories according to the abundance of immune cells in the BM. b) In this clinical series, patients with abundant immune cells MM (28 cases, 39%) presented higher number of PD-1+CD8+ T cells and Treg cells with respect to those patients with low-infiltrating MM cases (44 cases, 61%). c) In addition, the transcriptomic signatures corresponding to CD8+ T cells, Treg cells, NK cells and Thelper type 1 and type 2 cells were increased in the cases with higher number of immune cells with respect to those with less abundant T and NK cells.
