Responding Vγ9Vδ2-individuals decreases among HIV-infected patients who present lower Vγ9Vδ2 T-cell number than HD.

<p>Flow cytometer analyses were made to show (A) the absolute number of Vγ9Vδ2 T-cells from <i>ex vivo</i> HIV-infected patients (HIV+) and healthy donors (HD). The results are shown as median and interquartile range (box plot), and vertical lines show the minimum and maximum values; (B) the percentage of individuals among the HIV+ patients and HD having responding Vγ9Vδ2 T-cells after Picostim stimulation. Responding individuals, grey bar; Non-responding individuals, white bar. The Mann–Whitney U test was used to compare group medians. A p value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant, ***p<0.001.
