Mice were immunized with each recombinant virus, and spleens were harvested 3 weeks after the third immunization. Single cell suspensions of CD4+, CD8+, or pooled CD4+ and CD8+ T cells were prepared and subjected to in vitro stimulation for 72 h with 5 PFU of UV-inactivated HSV-1 McKrae/cell. The presence of cytokines in the supernatant was determined by ELISA. Each number represents the percentage of each cytokine that was produced by CD4+ T cells or CD8+ T cells in relation to the amount produced by both T cells from three experiments.
