sCD40L induced signaling is not significantly affected by cryopreservation. B cells from the same two healthy donors were analyzed before (fresh) and after (cryo) cryopreservation. The cells were stimulated with sCD40L (400 ng/mL) for 5 and 10 min before fixation and phospho flow analysis as described in Methods. Results are shown as mean ± standard deviation. Statistical significance was calculated between the two groups (fresh, cryo) by an ordinary two-way ANOVA with Sidak’s multiple comparisons test. **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05.
