Co-incubation of HPV(+) or HPV(−) exosomes with primary lymphocyte subpopulations. (A) Representative flow cytometry data for exosome-mediated inhibition of CD69-expression levels on the surface of human activated CD4+ T cells (top row). (B) Representative data for suppression of CFSE-labeled CD4+ T cell proliferation (bottom row). (C) The data for relative suppression of CD69 expression levels on T cells, and in (D) of T cell proliferation by exosomes isolated from HPV(+) and HPV(−) exosomes are compared. The data in (C,D) are means ± SD for 3 experiments performed with exosomes isolated from supernatants of each of the 5 HNC cell lines studied. nsd, no significant difference.
