Further, the presence of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), in particular, CD8+ T cells, has been associated with increased survival (Sato et al. 2005; Nelson 2008; Oble et al. 2009; Yamada et al. 2010; Gooden et al. 2011; Hwang et al. 2012), suggesting that the adaptive immune system can mount protective anti-tumor responses in many cancer patients (Kim et al. 2007; Fox et al. 2011). Here, CD8A is linked to neoplasm.
