Apoptosis of CD8 T cells correlates with a broad reprogramming of macrophage cytokine responses. (a and b) Infected macrophages and splenic CD8 T cells from infected mice were stimulated or not with soluble anti-CD3 in the presence of interleukin-2 (IL-2). Anti-CD3-activated cocultures were treated or not with anti-FasL or control immunoglobulin G (IgG). After 48 h, culture supernatants were collected for evaluation of NO (a) or cytokine (b) responses, as assessed by a cytokine array. CD8 T cells were analyzed for annexin V/7-AAD (7-aminoactinomycin D) staining (a). Adherent cells were cultured during 4 weeks for determination of released trypomastigotes (a). Data represent mean and S.E.M. of two (b), or three to four (a) technical replicates. Data depicted in (a) represent at least three independent experiments. Significant differences between treatments are indicated (*), as analyzed by analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Bonferroni post-test (a)
