FIG 1 — Characterization of immune cell subsets in individuals recovering from COVID-19. (A) The fold changes of the percentages (median) of total T cells, CD4 and CD8 T cells, B cells, NK cells, NKT-like cells, dendritic cells, and monocytes in the blood of CI (n = 30) compared to those of UI (n = 21) are depicted by radar plots. (B) The percentages of total T cells, CD4 and CD8 T cells, B cells, NK cells, and monocytes in the blood of UI (n = 21) and CI (n = 30) were analyzed by flow cytometry. (C) The absolute numbers and percentages of NKT-like cells in the blood of UI (n = 21) and CI (n = 30) were analyzed by flow cytometry. (D) The absolute numbers and percentages of invariant NKT (iNKT) cells in the blood of UI (n = 6) and CI (n = 19) were analyzed by flow cytometry. (E) The absolute numbers and percentages of dendritic cells in the blood of UI (n = 21) and CI (n = 30) were analyzed by flow cytometry. CI, COVID-19-convalescent individuals; UI, SARS-CoV-2-unexposed individuals. Statistically significant differences are indicated by asterisks (*, <0.05; **, <0.01; nonparametric Mann-Whitney test).
