PBMCs from IM patients 1 and 2 and healthy donor 3 were costained with anti–human CD8− tricolor-labeled antibody and phycoerythrin-labeled HLA A2/GLC or HLA B7/RPP tetramers. Fluorescence intensities were then measured with a FACScan. Values indicate the percent CD8 T cells positive for HLA A2/GLC or HLA B7/RPP tetramer.
For phenotypic analysis PBMCs from these individuals were costained with HLA-peptide tetramers for early lytic (GLC) or latent (RPP) epitopes and monoclonal antibodies specific to T-cell surface antigens (CD27, CD38, CD44, or CD62L). Values shown indicate the percent HLA-peptide tetramer–reactive T cells positive/negative for CD27, CD38, CD44, or CD62L.
