Cancer Immunity and Gene Expression Data: A Quick Tool for Immunophenotype Evaluation

The rapid advancement of next generation sequencing technology has resulted in accumulation of many datasets in cancer clinical and research laboratories, many of which do not have bioinformaticians. Xu and colleagues developed a user-friendly web-based tool to define the tumor immunophenotype among patients with cancer. By uploading user-defined datasets on the web, it can systematically track, analyze, and visualize the status of anticancer immune activity and the proportion of tumor-infiltrating immune cells. This tool can help immunologists and clinical researchers to perform quick, efficient, and comprehensive analysis of the tumor immunophenotype.See related article by Xu et al., p. 6575
