a, Schematic of experimental design. b-g Flow cytometry analysis of the frequency of splenic (Spl) or TIL CD45.1+CD8+ or CD45.2+CD8+ T cells (b), Granzyme B-, IFN-γ-, TNF-α-producing or Ki67+ CD8 TILs (c), PD1+,Tim3+, Lag3+ or TIGIT+ CD8 TILs (d), TCF1+Tim3−, TCF1+Tim3+ and TCF1−Tim3+ subsets in gated CD8+PD1+ TILs (e), Granzyme B-, IFN-γ-, TNF-α-producing cells in gated PD1+Tim3+ CD8 TILs (f), or Ki67+CD8+ cells in gated PD1+Tim3+ CD8+ TILs (g) of B16-OVA tumor-bearing Rag1 KO recipient mice adoptively transferred with a mixture of BM cells derived from B6.SJL mice (CD45.1+) and Dapl1 KO (CD45.2+) or wildtype mice (CD45.2+). Data are presented as representative FACS plots and summary graphs. n = 5 chimeric mice. h-l, Flow cytometry analysis of the frequency of CD45.1+CD8+ or CD45.2+CD8+ T cells (h), H2Db/gp33-41 Tetramer+ CD8+ T cells (i), IL-2-, IFN-γ-, Granzyme B-, TNF-α-, or Ki67+-producing CD8 T cells (j), PD1+, Tim3+, Lag3+, TIGIT+, PD1+Tim3+ CD8 T cells or TCF1+Tim3−, TCF1+Tim3+, TCF1−Tim3+ subsets (k), and IFN-γ-, IL-2-, TNF-α- or Granzyme B-producing CD8 T cells (l), gated on PD1+Tim3+ CD8+ T cells in the spleen of Rag1 KO recipient mice adoptively transferred with a mixture of BM cells derived from B6.SJL mice (CD45.1+) and Dapl1 KO (CD45.2+) or wildtype (CD45.2+) mice, infected i.v. with LCMV clone 13 for 30 days. Data are presented as representative FACS plots and summary graphs. n = 5 chimeric mice. Summary data are shown as the mean±s.d. with P values determined using a two-tailed unpaired Student’s t-test (b-l). ns, not significant.
