Spearman correlations between the frequency of CD8+tet+ T cells vs. the frequency of IFN-γ producing CD8+ T cells at baseline and on Days 43 and 85 after vaccination1
| gp100 | MART-1 | Tyrosinase | FLU | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pre vaccination | ns | −0.26 (0.073) | −0.67 (<0.001) | ns |
| Day 43 | ns | ns | −0.53 (0.005) | ns |
| Day 85 | 0.55 (0.006) | ns | 0.62 (<0.001) | ns |
The frequency of CD8+tet+ T cells was measured by flow cytometry, while that of IFN-γ producing CD8+ T cells was measured by a direct ELISPOT assay. Significant positive correlations are in bold, p values are in parentheses.
