Monitoring T cells is of major importance for the development of immunotherapies. Recent sophisticated assays can address particular aspects of the anti-tumor T-cell repertoire or support very large-scale immune screening for biomarker discovery. Robust methods for the routine assessment of the quantity and quality of antigen-specific T cells remain, however, essential. This review discusses selected methods that are commonly used for T-cell monitoring and summarizes the advantages and limitations of these assays. We also present a new functional assay, which specifically detects activated beta(2) integrins within a very short time following CD8(+) T-cell stimulation. Because of its unique and favorable characteristics, this assay could be useful for implementation into our T-cell monitoring toolbox.
