Figures & data

Figure 1. Anti-CTLA-4 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) block CTLA-4 from inhibiting T cell activation. The resultant expansion and mobilization of activated T cells is reflected in the rapid turnover of the entire T cell repertoire in the periphery. In this representative example, each color represents a unique T cell clone as determined by next generation sequencing of rearranged TCRB genes and ranked by abundance.
