Figure Lengend Snippet: Target antigen expression on PBMC. Data is displayed as the average median fluorescent intensity (MFI) ± SD (N = 5). PBMC were stained using the following drugs: siplizumab (Target antigen CD2), Alemtuzumab (CD52) and rATG (Thymocyte antigens). After removal of unbound antibody, samples were stained with a secondary anti-human IgG antibody and MFI for the secondary antibody was recorded, representing the expression of the respective transplant antigens. Tcm, central memory T cells; Tem, effector memory T cells; Temra, effector-memory CD45RA + T cells; rTreg, resting regulatory T cells; nsTreg, non-suppressive Treg; aTreg, activated Treg; CD56 Bright , CD56 bright NK cells; CD56 Dim , CD56 dim NK cells; CD56 neg CD16 + , CD56 − CD16 + NK cells.
Article Snippet: PBMC were isolated via density gradient centrifugation and incubated with siplizumab or positive control rat anti-CD2 IgG2b mAb (BTI-322, BioTransplant Inc, MA, USA) in 10% ultra-low IgG FBS in PBS at the indicated concentrations for 30 min at 1 × 10 7 cells per ml at RT with shaking.
