Figure Lengend Snippet: Results of cytotoxicity assays using CD8 T cells following various stimulations (A) Comparison of cell death of L cells as measured by Annexin V following assay with unstimulated and stimulated CD8 T cells in the presence and absence of anti-CD3-incubated L cells. ○ depicts total CD8 T cells, □ depicts memory CD8 T cells. n = 6 (B) Comparison of cell death of L cells pre-incubated with anti-CD3 OKT3 clone vs. SK7 clone following incubation with CD8 T cells. n = 3 (C) Comparison of cell death by CD8+ T cells unstimulated or stimulated with IL15 or IFNβ in L cells pre-incubated with anti-CD3 OKT3 clone vs. SK7 clone. ∗∗ p ≤ 0.01, ∗ p ≤ 0.05 by ratio paired T test. n = 3 (D) Annexin V staining in L cells pre-incubated with anti-CD3 after incubation with unstimulated or anti-CD3/anti-CD28 stimulated naive (∗∗ p ≤ 0.01), memory (∗∗ p ≤ 0.01) or TEMRA CD8+ T cells. n = 4 (E) Annexin V staining of L cells after incubation with unstimulated or IFNβ stimulated naïve, memory, or TEMRA (∗ p ≤ 0.05) CD8 T cells. n = 5 (F) Memory CD8+ T cells cultured in complete media for 3 days in the presence and absence of anti-CD3/anti-CD28 were exposed to V-type H + -ATPase inhibitor concanamycin A (CMA) at 10 nM, then incubated with L cells pre-incubated with anti-CD3 antibody. Cytotoxicity of memory CD8+ T cells was inhibited by exposure to concanamycin A. n = 6. ○ depicts usage of SK7, □ depicts usage of OKT3 during assay. Each color represents a different healthy T cell donor.
