CD161 expression in CD3⁺ T lymphocytes from BAL fluid or PBMCs.

<p>BACs or PBMCs were stained with anti-human CD3 and CD161. (A) Representative flow cytometry analysis plots. The CD3⁺ cells in the SSC vs CD3 plot were selected, and the CD3⁺CD161⁺ cells were selected by gating on the CD161 vs CD3 plot or single histogram plot set according to appropriate isotype controls. (B) The box plot shows the percentages of CD3⁺CD161⁺ T lymphocytes in BACs and PBMCs from healthy volunteers; n = 10. P values were generated using the Mann-Whitney test with the GraphPad prism software.
