Figure 4From: The evolution of rectal and urinary toxicity and immune response in prostate cancer patients treated with two three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy techniquesCumulative effect of radiation vs. toxicity on NKT cell proportions in the course of 3DCRT. CD4+ out of CD3+CD56+ NKT cells were evaluated in the PBMC of patients suffering GI, GU toxicities of grades 1-3 (T) or without any toxicity (0) undergoing WP (n = 16; A) or PO (n = 21; B) types of radiotherapy. Pooled data of patients in each treatment group, at all time points tested, are presented as mean values, where standard deviation does not exceed 10%.Back to article page
