Lymphocyte and T cell dynamics STEMI patients. Total lymphocyte, lymphocyte apoptosis (Annexin V+ cells), and T cell subset count (cells/μl) from blood of STEMI patients at different time points: after MI and before reperfusion (pre-PCI) and after MI and after reperfusion (24 h, 96 h, and 30 d post-PCI). A significant drop of lymphocytes, T cell (CD3+), CD4, CD8, and Th1 (CD4+CXCR3+) 24 h post-PCI was observed in STEMI patients. While B cells (CD19+) and Th2 (CD4+CCR4+) did not change. Treg (CD4+CD25+FOXP3+) increased after one month. Values are expressed as mean ± SD. p < 0.05 or p < 0.01 versus pre-PCI. PCI: percutaneous coronary intervention; SD: standard deviation; STEMI: ST-segment myocardial infarction; Treg: T regulatory cells.
