Activated T cell infiltration is increased in high-mutation tumors and associated with a specific immunophenotype. (a) Tumors with higher mutation burden were more likely to contain activated (Act) CD4+ and CD8+ activated T cells, though this difference was not significant after adjusting for multiple comparisons. (b) Activated CD4+ and CD8+ T cells were both positively correlated with CD4+ effector memory T cells (Tem), type 2 helper cells (Th2), memory (Mem) B cells, myeloid dendritic cells (mDC), and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC). Additional cell types analyzed include central memory T cells (Tcm); follicular helper T cells (Tfh); regulatory T cells (Tregs); gamma-delta T cells (Tgd); dendritic cells (DC); immature dendritic cells (iDC); plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC); macrophages (Mac); neutrophils (Neu); monocytes (Mono); eosinophils (Eos); mast cells (Mast); natural killer cells (NK); CD56 bright NK cells (NK Bright); CD56 dim NK cells (NK Dim); and natural killer T cells (NKT).
