Flow cytometry analysis of levels of CD3 + CD4+ and CD3 + CD8+ T cells in immunized a1,3GT KO mice. Mouse spleen mononuclear cells were isolated by density gradient centrifugation on Ficoll-Paque. And three different colors were used for CD3+, CD4+ and CD8+ membrane markers. Gated CD3 positive events were analyzed for CD4 and CD8 production. The graph of flow cytometry represents data of five experiments with similar results. a The distribution of CD3+CD4+ and CD3+CD8+ T cells in spleen from nonimmunized mice. b The distribution of CD3+CD4+ and CD3+CD8+ T cells in spleen from mice immunized with SKOV3 cells. c The distribution of CD3+CD4+ and CD3+CD8+ T cells in spleen from mice immunized with SKOV3 spheroid cells. d The distribution of CD3+CD4+ and CD3+CD8+ T cells in spleen from mice immunized with SKOV3-gal cells. e The distribution of CD3+CD4+ and CD3+CD8+ T cells in spleen from mice immunized with SKOV3-gal spheroid cells. f The frequency of CD3+CD4+ T-cells. g The frequency of CD3+CD8+ T cells. h The ratio of CD3+CD4+ CD8- cells to CD3+CD4- CD8+ cells (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01)
