Figure 2. Polyfunctional CMV-responsive CD8+ T cells tend to be terminally differentiated effectors.

Figure 2

A) Total and polyfunctional CD8+ T cells were gated for CCR7 and CD45RO expression. B) Proportion of polyfunctional CD8+ T cells in each memory/effector subpopulation pre-transplant. Bars stack to a total of 100% of polyfunctional cells. n=15. C) Proportion of polyfunctional CD8+ T cells that are effector (CD45ROCCR7, black squares) or effector memory (CD45RO+CCR7, gray triangles) phenotype in response to IE-1 or pp65. Trends analyzed using mixed-effects generalized linear modeling in STATA. There were no statistically significant differences. Lines represent means and error bars represent SEM. # PT represents the number of patients at each time point. Not all recipients had samples at all time points, resulting in variable n.
