Characterization of a whole blood assay for quantifying myeloid-derived suppressor cells

ConclusionsMDSC are a heterogenous group of cells, and their quantitation in WB can be affected by a number of pre-analytical variables. Consideration of these factors, and measurement using a material type that has not been manipulated, such as whole blood, is likely to yield the most accurate results.
