Figure 2.

DNAM-1 promotes CD8 T cell proliferation in response to antigen presented by nonprofessional APCs. DNAM-1−/− OT-1 transgenic CD8 T cells proliferate less efficiently than WT OT-1 cells in response to SIINFEKL peptide presented by EL-4 T lymphoma cells expressing mCD155. Proliferation was measured (A) by [3H]thymidine incorporation or (B) by evaluating the increase in SSC and FSC by flow cytometry in blasting cells. Dot plot analysis shows stimulation induced by 10 ng/ml SIINFEKL. One representative experiment out of three is shown. Results in A are means ± SEM.
