T-cell activation using sDCs of different length and αCD3
density. (a) Fraction of activated PBLs as determined from single-cell
Ca2+-signaling measurements performed during the first
hour of stimulation with P1, P2, and free
αCD3. (b) Relative increase in the concentration of IFNγ
secreted by PBLs treated with P1, P2, and
free αCD3 for 16 h. Untreated PBLs were used as a reference.
(c) Fraction of activated PBLs as determined from single-cell Ca2+-signaling measurements performed during the first hour of
stimulation with P3a–c, and free
αCD3. (d) Relative increase in the concentration of IFNγ
secreted by PBLs treated with P3a–c, and free αCD3 for 16 h. Untreated PBLs were used as a reference.
For (a)–(c), the data represent the mean ± SEM of three
independent experiments performed with T cells from different donors.
For (d), the data represent the mean ± SEM of two independent
experiments performed with T cells from different donors. The number
of cells analyzed in the single-cell Ca2+-signaling experiments
(a, c) is summarized in Table S4.
