Transcription factors T-bet and NF-κB were checked to determine if they were constitutively active in the CD8+ population of a representative subset of TKI-treated patients. A culmination of two experiments showing that only TCR positive and large granular lymphocyte (LGL)-like phenotype indicated above normal levels of T-bet and NF-κB.
