Figure 7

CD16-dependent degranulation and IFN-γ production by Tim-3pos NK cells in HIV infection. The percentage of cells expressing CD107a (left panels) or IFN-γ (right panels) within either the total or Tim-3pos NK cell populations after CD16 stimulation was measured based on the gating strategy shown in Figure 5 and contrasted between (A) HCMVneg (n = 9) and (B) HCMVpos (n = 15–19) and between the (C) HCMVneg, NKG2Clo, and NKG2Chi HIV-infected study groups. Error bars in (A) represent mean ± SD and comparison between conditions carried out with Student's paired t-test. Bars in (B) represent mean ± SD and Student's paired t-test performed (left panel) or median with IQR with significance calculated by Wilcoxon signed-rank test (right panel). Error bars in (C) represent mean ± SD where data was normally distributed and median with IQR in all other cases.
