LOFU + RT increases anti-tumor immunity. (A) LOFU + RT induces PSA-specific activated CD8+ T cells. Splenic PSA-MHC class I restricted pentamer + activated (CD62L-) CD8+ T cells increased in wild-type mice 7 days after the end of treatment. (ANOVA p < 0.0001) (B) LOFU + RT enhances tumor-specific T cell mediated death. Increased T cell-mediated toxicity in splenocytes isolated 7 days after the end of treatment in PSA-Tg mice as measured by LDH cytotoxicity assay. (ANOVA p = 0.05) (C) LOFU + RT reduces splenic exhausted CD8+ T cells. Exhausted (TIM3+) activated (CD69-CD62L-) and effector memory (CD62L-CD44+) CD8+ T cells in spleen reduced 7 days after combination treatment. (ANOVA CD44 + CD62L- CD8+ T cells p = 0.05).
