Roederer et al., 2011 ): bar graph (means ± standard deviations) for each stimulating antigen (red for CoV-2, light green for S 811–826 , dark green for S 816–831 ) and comparison to control (gray) (p < 0.05, Wilcoxon rank-sum test); pie and arcs show the combined contribution of each marker (pie slice colors correspond to colors shown at the bottom of the bar graphs). (F) t-SNE analysis of concatenated data from 3 donors for stimulation with same antigens, showing density plots for each condition. Two gates (g1 and g2) were drawn, indicating major differences among stimulated and unstimulated samples. Histograms show IFN-γ, TNF-α, and CD107a in each gate. Representative density plots for responses of d0801 are shown (see also

Figure Lengend Snippet: Functional characterization of in vitro -expanded cross-reactive T cells (A) Gating. (B) Representative plot of CD4/CD8 distribution in the CD3 + population and percentage of CD4 + cells (bar graph) in cells expanded from 3 donors. (C) Representative plot of CD45RA/CD197 in the CD4 + population and summary of the percentage of naive (N), central memory (CM), effector memory (EM), and EM re-expressing RA (TEMRA) populations in expanded cells (n = 3). (D) Representative ICS plots for IFN-γ, TNF-α, and IL-2 production, and CD107a mobilization, in the CD3 + population after re-stimulation of expanded cells with SARS-CoV-2 S pool (CoV-2 S) or peptides S 811–826 and S 816–831 ; positive responses shown in red boxes (>3-fold background). (E) Visualization of the polyfunctional response using Simplified Presentation of Incredibly Complex Evaluations (SPICE) ( Roederer et al., 2011 ): bar graph (means ± standard deviations) for each stimulating antigen (red for CoV-2, light green for S 811–826 , dark green for S 816–831 ) and comparison to control (gray) (p < 0.05, Wilcoxon rank-sum test); pie and arcs show the combined contribution of each marker (pie slice colors correspond to colors shown at the bottom of the bar graphs).

Two gates (g1 and g2) were drawn, indicating major differences among stimulated and unstimulated samples. Histograms show IFN-γ, TNF-α, and CD107a in each gate. Representative density plots for responses of d0801 are shown (see also Figure S2 ).
