CD32 is a marker of T-cell activation. a Flow cytometry dot plots showing co-expression of CD32 and markers of cell activation and proliferation in unstimulated (UN) PBMCs or those stimulated with IL-2, PHA/IL-2, αCD3/αCD28/IL-2, and IL-7/IL-2. A representative donor is shown. b Fold change of CD32 expression in CD4+ T cells unstimulated or stimulated with different conditions from uninfected donors. The cells were cultured in the presence of different stimuli for 72 h, and protein levels of the cell surface marker CD32 were evaluated by flow cytometry. c Percentage of Ki67+ cells after activation with different stimuli as in (a). d Upregulation of CD32 correlates with the expression of activation markers HLA-DR and CD69 after activation with the different stimuli. Relative contribution of HLA-DR (left panel) or CD69 (right panel) cells over the total population of CD32-expressing cells. e Individual data of HLA-DR cells (left panel) or CD69 (right panel) cells in the CD32 compartment. The gating strategy used to identify CD32+ cells is shown in Supplementary Fig. 1. All panels represent the mean ± SD of at least five different donors.
