Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Representative flow cytometry gating for CD8 + TEM and CD69 + and CD69 + CD103 + CD8 + TEM in human tonsils. ( B ) Quantification of CD8 + TEM and CD69 + and CD69 + CD103 + CD8 + TEM in human PBMCs and tonsils. ( C ) Representative histogram of geometric mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) and quantification of CD11a expression by TEM from spleen (blue) and NALT (orange) of EBV-infected animals (left 2 panels) and (right 2 panels) in TEM from human PBMCs (blue) and tonsils from EBV + donors (red). ( D ) MFI and quantification of PD1 expression by TEM in spleen (blue) and NALT (orange) of EBV-infected animals (left 2 panels) and (right 2 panels) in TEM from human PBMCs (blue) and tonsils from EBV + donors (red). ( E ) MFI and quantification of CD27 expression by TEM in spleen (blue) and NALT (orange) of EBV-infected animals (left 2 panels) and (right 2 panels) in TEM from human PBMCs (blue) and tonsils from EBV-positive donors (red). For animal data, n = 14–30 animals per group from at least 6 independent experiments; for human data, n = 3–5 individuals per tissue from 2 independent experiments, except CD11a data, which is derived from a single experiment. * P ≤ 0.05, ** P ≤ 0.01, by Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-rank test for animal data (second column, C , D , and E ) and Mann-Whitney U test for human data ( B and fourth column C , D , and E ).
Article Snippet: CD8 + T cells were depleted weekly, via i.p. injection beginning at week 3 after infection, with the monoclonal antibody against human CD8 (clone OKT-8; BioXCell).
