a-e, Flow cytometry quantification of FOXP3+ Tregs from primary (P), RT, RT + Conc.IT and RT + Adj.IT treated tumor-bearing mice at indicated timepoints. a, Ki67+ Tregs (gated from CD45+CD11bCD3+CD4+FOXP3+ T cells) in PDG-Ink4a tumors (Primary n = 5, RT n = 7, RT + Conc.IT n = 9, RT + Adj.IT n = 9 mice). b,c FOXP3+ Tregs (gated from CD45+CD11bCD3+CD4+ T cells) in the superficial cervical lymph nodes (LN) (b) and blood (c) of PDG-Ink4a tumor bearing mice (b: Primary n = 4, d6 RT n = 9, d12 RT n = 10, d6 RT + Conc.IT n = 9, d12 RT + Conc.IT n = 7, d6 RT + Adj.IT n = 5, d12 RT + Adj.IT n = 6 mice. c: Primary n = 4, d6 RT n = 8, d12 RT n = 9, d6 RT + Conc.IT n = 10, d12 RT + Conc.IT n = 13, d6 RT + Adj.IT n = 10, d12 RT + Adj.IT n = 10 mice). d,e FOXP3+ Tregs (gated from CD45+CD11bCD3+CD4+ T cells) in tumors (d) and LN (e) of PDG-p53 tumor-bearing mice (d: Primary n = 4, d6 RT n = 8, d12 RT n = 8, d6 RT + Conc.IT n = 7, d12 RT + Conc.IT n = 7, d6 RT + Adj.IT n = 9, d12 RT + Adj.IT n = 5 mice. e: d6 RT n = 5, d12 RT n = 4, d6 RT + Conc.IT n = 4, d12 RT + Conc.IT n = 2, d6 RT + Adj.IT n = 4, d12 RT + Adj.IT n = 3 mice). f, UMAP projection and unsupervised FlowSOM clustering of CD4+ T cell subpopulations in PDG-Ink4a glioblastoma 6d post treatment initiation identified 4 distinct subpopulations of CD4+ T cells (Pop 0-3). g, Heatmap depicting the MFI of activation markers for each subpopulation identified in (f). h, UMAP density projections plot of CD4 + T cell subpopulations from (f). i, UMAP projection and unsupervised FlowSOM clustering of CD4+ T cell subpopulations in PDG-Ink4a glioblastoma 12d post treatment initiation identified 4 distinct subpopulations of CD4+ T cells (Pop 0-3). j, Heatmap depicting the MFI of activation markers for each subpopulation identified in (i). k, UMAP density projections plot of CD4 + T cell subpopulations from (i) l-m, Stacked bar plot displaying the distribution of CD4+ T cells subpopulations in RT + Conc.IT and RT + Adj.IT treated tumors at d6 (l) and d12 (m) post treatment initiation. For f-h,l: d6 RT + Conc.IT n = 4, d6 RT + Adj.IT n = 4 mice. For i-k,m: d12 RT + Conc.IT n = 6, d12 RT + Adj.IT n = 7 mice. Statistics: one-way ANOVA with Benjamini, Krieger and Yekutieli correction for multiple testing (a-e) and two-stage linear step-up procedure of Benjamini, Krieger and Yekutieli (m). Data are represented as mean ± S.E.M. (a-e) or - S.E.M. (l,m).
