LCL161 therapy rescues CD8+ T-cell exhaustion within the TME. a Intracellular staining for IFNγ or TNFα within CD8+ T cells isolated from EMT6 tumors 7 days post treatment and stimulated with PMA and ionomycin ex vivo, measured by flow cytometry (duplicate experiments; mean ± SD; ANOVA with Bonferroni’s multiple comparisons test). b Membrane staining for PD-1 and Tim-3 expression on CD8+ T cells isolated from 12-day-old EMT6 tumors, measured by flow cytometry (duplicate experiments; mean ± SD). c CD8+ T cells within EMT6 tumors 7 days post treatment, measured by flow cytometry (triplicate experiments; mean ± SD; t-test). d Intracellular staining for IFNγ or TNFα within CD8+ T cells isolated from EMT6 TdLN 7 days post treatment and stimulated with PMA and ionomycin, measured by flow cytometry (single experiment; mean ± SD; ANOVA with Bonferroni’s multiple comparisons test). e Membrane staining for PD-1 and Tim-3 expression on CD8+ T cells isolated from 12-day-old EMT6 TdLNs, measured by flow cytometry (duplicate experiment; mean ± SD). f Activation of CD8+ T cells isolated from TdLN 8 days post treatment, after co-culture with EMT6 cells, measured by IFNγ ELISpot assay (n = 3 biological replicates, single experiment; mean ± SD; ANOVA with Tukey’s multiple comparisons test). g CD8+ T cells within EMT6 TdLN 7 days post treatment, measured by flow cytometry (duplicate experiments; mean ± SD; t-test). h Intracellular staining for IFNγ or TNFα within CD8+ T cells isolated from 12-day-old EMT6 tumors and treated in vitro with LCL161 at the indicated concentrations for 24 h, measured by flow cytometry (n = 2 biological replicates, single experiment; mean ± SD; ANOVA with Bonferroni’s multiple comparisons test)
