Figure Lengend Snippet: Low-affinity CD5 CAR-T cells exhibit reduced fratricide and exhaustion phenotypes (A) Viability of CAR-T cells measured on day 3 after cell seeding. Data are presented as mean ± SD from multiple donors ( n = 3). (B) Culture supernatants were collected on day 3 after cell seeding. IFN-γ and TNF-α levels secreted by CAR -T cells were measured by cytometric bead array. Data are presented as mean ± SD from multiple donors ( n = 3). (C) CD69 expression level of CAR-T cells on day 10 after seeding. Fluorescence intensity was quantified by flow cytometry. Data are presented as mean ± SD from multiple donors ( n = 3). (D) Total T cell number harvested on day 10 after cell seeding. Data are presented as mean ± SD from multiple donors ( n = 3). (E) Expression levels of PD-1 and LAG-3 (surface markers), and TOX (intracellular marker) in CAR-T cells on day 10 after seeding. Surface markers were analyzed by flow cytometry, and TOX expression was assessed via intracellular staining following fixation and permeabilization. Data are presented as mean ± SD from multiple donors ( n = 3). All statistical significance was assessed using a linear mixed-effects model with donor as a random effect and Tukey’s test.

Data in f are presented as mean ± SD; data in c , d , and h are presented as mean ± SEM. In c , d , and h , ≥30 individual cells were analyzed per condition. Statistical significance was assessed using an unpaired two-tailed Student’s t -test (*** P ≤ 0.001). Data in c , d , and h are representative of two replicates using T cells from two blood donors. Data in f are representative of three replicates using T cells from three blood donors.
