Figure Lengend Snippet: A Body weight of hPD-1 knock-in mice during the treatment period. The mice were treated with vehicle or TER (10 or 30 mpk) for the indicated time. B Spleen weight of mice at the endpoint of the experiment. C Tumor volume was measured over time in hPD-1 knock-in mice bearing hPD-L1 MC38 tumors treated with vehicle or TER (10 or 30 mpk). Representative images of excised tumors from each group are shown. D Tumor weight at the endpoint of the experiment. E Flow cytometry analysis of CD8 + T-cell populations in tumors from each treatment group. F PD-L1 expression in tumors from each group, as assessed by western blot analysis. GAPDH was used as a loading control. G IHC staining of tumor sections for immune-related markers, including CD8 + T cells and GrB. Representative images from each group are shown, and the quantitation of marker-positive cells per field is presented. * <0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001, and **** p < 0.0001 compared with the respective control.
Article Snippet: Recombinant Jurkat-T cells expressing human PD-1 and an NFAT reporter gene (hPD-1/NFAT Jurkat-T cells, #60535) and recombinant CHO-K1 cells expressing human PD-L1 and a T-cell receptor (TCR) activator (hPD-L1/TCR CHO-K1 cells, #60536) were obtained from BPS Bioscience.
