Figure Lengend Snippet: PBMCs were stimulated with SEB for 72 hours. (A) Activated (CD3+CD25+) and resting (CD3+CD25−) T cells were then identified by FACS analysis, as shown for one representative experiment. Activated and resting T cells were then isolated, and bioenergetics were measured by real-time extracellular flux analysis. The (B) oxygen consumption rate (OCR) and (C) spare respiratory capacity (SRC) were measured in a basal state, and after the addition of oligomycin (to block ATP synthesis), FCCP (to uncouple ATP synthesis from the electron transport chain), and rotenone (to block complex I of the electron transport chain), as shown for one representative experiment. (D) The mean fluorescent intensity (MFI) of MitoTracker Green, (E) the basal OCR, (F) the basal extracellular acidification rate (ECAR), and (G) the OCR/ECAR ratio are shown for both activated and resting cells. Mean ± SE are plotted from 5 independent experiments. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01.
