MART1 peptide expression leads to a profound deletion of specific T cells. (A,B) Percentage of Tet+ cells in human CD8+ T cells (A) and CD4+ T cells (B) in the peripheral blood at different time points after HSC and thymic graft transplantation (mean ± SEM; peptide n = 8, control n = 9). (C–E) Percentage of Tet+ cells in different thymocyte populations (C), and in CD8+ T cells (D) and CD4+ T cells (E) from peripheral tissues and blood at end point (mean ± SEM, peptide n = 8, control n = 8). All panels: filled and open circles depict mice from Peptide and Control groups, respectively.
