Corresponding increase of memory Tregs and CD45RATNFα+ prior to relapse. Supervised gating of Tregs and CD45RATregs in patients with JIA (A) prior (n=20) and (B) after withdrawal (n=16) of therapy. (C–D) Tregs cells from patients with JIA (n=20; relapse=9, remission=11) prior to withdrawal were analysed with t-SNE and (C) segregated into four nodes, with node 3 (p<0.05) enriched in relapse individuals. (D) Phenotype of node 3 is depicted (red-dotted box and arrowhead). (E) Correlation analysis of frequency of Tregs or CD45RATregs with CD45RATNFα+. Comparison of cellular subsets performed with Mann-Whitney U, two-tailed test, means±SD. *p<0.05, ****p<0.0001. Correlation analysis performed with Pearson correlation, two-tailed test. ns, not significant; TNFα, tumour necrosis factor alpha; t-SNE, t-distributed stochastic neighbour embedding.
