Comparison of the main immune cell populations in the four compartments of the FRT and in PBMCs. (A) Percentage of CD45⁺ cells among total isolated cells; (B) CD14⁺ Antigen Presenting cells, CD19⁺ B cells, CD56⁺ Natural killer cells, and CD3⁺ T cells among CD45⁺ cells; (C) CD3⁺CD4⁺ and CD3⁺CD8⁺ T cells among CD45⁺ cells in the different compartments of the FRT. Uterus (UT) n = 23, Endocervix (ENDO) n = 17, Ectocervix (ECTO) n = 19, Vagina (VAG) n = 18, and PBMC n = 6. Each symbol represents a sample. The horizontal lines represent the median. Groups are compared by Mann-Whitney test *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.005, and ****p < 0.001.
