Figure Lengend Snippet: CD47 protects CD8 + T cells from macrophage clearance to boost antitumor immunity in SMARCA4-deficient NSCLC (A) Schematic of the adoptive T cell therapy experiment ( n = 8/group). (B) Representative in vivo bioluminescence images of mice from the indicated treatment groups at different time points. (C) Tumor growth curves, as measured by bioluminescence, for mice in each treatment group. (D) Individual tumor growth curves for mice in each treatment group. (E) Kaplan-Meier survival curves of mice from the four treatment groups. (F) Quantification by flow cytometry of donor-derived CD45.2 + CD8 + T cells among total tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. (G) Representative flow cytometry plots for donor-derived CD45.2 + CD8 + T cells expressing the exhaustion markers PD-1, TIGIT, and TIM-3. (H) Quantification of the percentage of CD45.2 + CD8 + T cells expressing PD-1, TIGIT, and TIM-3. (I) The production of TNF-α by donor-derived CD45.2 + CD8 + T cells. (J) The production of IFN-γ by donor-derived CD45.2 + CD8 + T cells. (K) Representative immunofluorescence images of tumor sections. White: CD8, green: CD47, red: F4/80. Scale bars, 70 μm. (L) Schematic model depicting the proposed mechanism of action. Data are represented as mean ± SD (error bars) from biological replicates. Statistical analyses, n.s., no significance. Statistical significance was determined by one-way ANOVA.
