Brief description
Genes down-regulated in comparison of effector memory T cells versus central memory T cells from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC).
Full description or abstract
Microarray deconvolution is a technique for quantifying the relative abundance of constituent cells in a mixture based on that mixture's microarray signature and the signatures of the purified constituents. It has been applied to yeast and other systems but not to blood samples. Here we test the ability of this technique to determine the fractions of subsets of memory T cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) samples.
