PBMCs remaining after T-cell purification were fractionated by negative or positive selection into putative APC types, and all results are expressed as percentages of the response when the unfractionated PBMCs act as APCs. Sequential depletion of CD14+, CD1a+/11c+, and CD5+ cells removes monocytes, dendritic cells, and CLL cells, respectively.
