4T1 TDLNs contain approximately 30% of cells that demonstrate downregulation of CD62L suggestive of antigen-priming in vivo. The L-selectinlow subpopulation contains higher proportions of CD4 prior to culture activation and consists predominantly of Thy1.2+ lymphocytes after ex vivo expansion. Each experiment was performed 5 times.
