Correlations of peripheral T lymphocyte phenotypes with disease activity and autoantibody titre in patients with SLE. (A) The frequency of CD4+CXCR5PD1+ T cells was associated with SLEDAI-2K scores. (B) The frequency of terminally differentiated CD8+ T cells was associated with the level of C4. The frequency of CD8+CD38+HLADR+ T cells was associated with the levels of C3 (C), ANA (D) and anti-dsDNA (E). Correlations of peripheral T lymphocyte phenotypes with disease activity and autoantibody titre were assessed using Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient. anti-dsDNA, antidouble-stranded DNA; C3, complement 3; C4, complement 4.
