Correlation between mean pretreatment expressions of CD2 and post-treatment changes in total cell counts. (a) Individual values for naive, memory and effector cells within the CD4⁺ population (n = 16, n = 48). (b) Individual values for naive, memory and terminally differentiated effector cells within the CD8⁺ population (n = 16, n = 48). (c) Individual values for naive, CD25^high, CD25^low, CLA⁺ and CD161⁺ cells within the CD4⁺ population (n = 16, n = 80). (d) Individual values for naive, CLA⁺ and CD161⁺ cells within the CD8⁺ population (n = 16, n = 48). r = Spearman's correlation coefficient. Positive values denote reduction in cell count, negative values denote an increase. The relative expression of CD2 for each subpopulation was assessed as the median fluorescent intensity (MFI) ratio (see Table 1).
