Expression of PD-1 and LAG-3 on CD8+ T cells in BLV-infected cattle. A Gating strategy and representative dot plots for expression analyses of PD-1 and LAG-3 on IgMCD3+CD8+γδTCR T cells from peripheral blood of BLV-infected cattle (AL and EBL). Values in the quadrants indicate percentages of cells. Percentages of PD-1+LAG-3+CD8+ T cells (B), PD-1+LAG-3CD8+ T cells (C), and PD-1LAG-3+CD8+ T cells (D) in CD3+CD8+ T-cell population in peripheral blood from BLV − (n = 15), AL (n = 22), PL (n = 11), and EBL cattle (n = 7). Bars indicate group median percentage. Significant differences between each group were determined using a Kruskal–Wallis test, where P < 0.05, P < 0.01, and P < 0.001, indicated by asterisks (*, **, and ***, respectively).
