Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 4. The proportion of the T cell subpopulation in chickens immunized with PBS, pET-32a tag protein and rEmEF2 was determined by flow cytometry 7 days after the first and second immu- nization. (A) Detection of CD3+CD4+ T lymphocytes in immunized chickens 7 days after the first immunization. (B) Detection of CD3+CD4+ T lymphocytes in immunized chickens 7 days after the second immunization. (C) Detection of CD3+CD8+ T lymphocytes in immunized chickens 7 days after the first immunization. (D) Detection of CD3+CD8+ T lymphocytes in immunized chickens 7 days after the second immunization. 1: PBS control group. 2: pET-32a tag protein control group. 3: rEmEF2 group.
