It has been demonstrated that T cell immune inhibitory receptors, also known as immune checkpoint receptors, such as program death-1 (PD-1), T cell immunoglobulin mucin 3 (Tim-3), cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated molecule-4 (CTLA-4) and T cell lymphocyte activation gene-3 (LAG-3) have increased expression in T cells in patients with newly diagnosed and relapsed AML and murine AML models [19–22]. This evidence concerns the gene LAG3 and acute myeloid leukemia.
