Clinical Study

Activation of T Lymphocytes in Response to Persistent Bacterial Infection: Induction of CD11b and of Toll-Like Receptors on T Cells

Figure 6

Characterisation of the infiltrated T cells: (a, b) compared to the peripheral blood, the cellular infiltrate (local) contained a higher percentage of CD4+CD11b+ cells, while CD28− was lost (each pair of symbols corresponds to one patient). (c) For CD8+ cells, a small increase of CD8+CD11b+ cells in the cellular infiltrate was seen in the majority of patients, and (d) a considerable in increase in CD8+ expressing CD57.
