Treatment with anti–CTLA-4 mAb augments the accumulation and activation of adoptively transferred CD8+ T cells in the lymph nodes of mice immunized with DC. (A) Numbers of Vα2+Vβ8+CD8+ cells were determined in the lymph nodes of experimental mice (n = 4–8) 5 d after immunization with DC and are presented as the average ± SE fold increase in the total number of Vα2+Vβ8+CD8+ T cells over the corresponding nonimmunized adoptive transfer controls. Combined results from two experiments are shown. Numbers of Vα2+Vβ8+CD8+ T cells in nonimmunized adoptive transfer controls varied between 3 × 104 and 105 over two different experiments. Mice received treatment with anti–CTLA-4 mAb or control IgG as indicated. (B) Representative stainings from mice immunized with DC + Ag. CD44 expression on gated Vα2+Vβ8+ cells was determined by triple staining and FACS® analysis.
