Frequencies and effector memory phenotypes of Tax301-309-CTLs in ACs and ATL patients. (a) Frequencies of Tax tetramer-positive CD8 T cells among sACs (n = 14), hrACs (n = 3), and ATL patients. Horizontal bars indicate the averages of Tax tetramer-positive cells for all groups. n.s., not significant. (b) Differentiation of subsets based on CD45RA CCR7 expression in Tax tetramer-positive cells. Tax tetramer-positive cells in the CD45RA− CCR7− effector memory subset (TEM-Tax-CTL) were further evaluated according to the expression of CD27 and CD28 (24) (c) and CD27 and CD57 (25, 26) (d) and compared to that of all of the CD8 T cells in the effector memory subset.
