Figure 6. Higher CD4+ T-cell frequencies are observed in cGVHD but not skin aGVHD. Flow cytometric analysis of fresh lymphocytes isolated from 4-mm punch-skin biopsies after collagenase digestion. Shown is a comparison of CD4 (ECD) and CD8 (AmCyan) frequencies (A), naive (NA, CD45RA+, AF700), CCR7+ (FITC), EM (CD45RA−CCR7−), central memory (CM, CD45RA−CCR7+), and EM RA+ (RA+CD45RA+CCR7−) frequency (B), and CXCR3+(PE) expression (C) by CD3+ T cells in the skin of patients with aGVHD (n = 10) and cGVHD (n = 9). Data are expressed as the median frequency of CD3+ T cells with bars illustrating the interquartile range (A-B) and as the mean frequency with bars illustrating SEM (C-D). *P < .05 and **P < .005 by the Mann-Whitney U test.
