(A) Freshly isolated PBMC were examined by flow cytometry for percentages of CD127+ cells in total, naïve, CM and EM CD3+CD4+ T cells. (B–C) T cells were purified from freshly isolated PBMCs and gene expression of ISGs and IFN-α was analyzed by qRT-PCR. (B) Messenger RNA expression of OAS1 and MxA (IF n=10, IS n= 9, HC n= 9) ISGs (C) IFN-α mRNA analyses (IF n=9, IS n= 11, HC n= 7). Abbreviations: 2'-5'-Oligoadenylate Synthetase-1, OAS-1; Myxovirus resistance A protein, MxA; Interferon-alpha, IFN-α; immune failure, IF; immune success, IS; healthy control, HC.
