CTLA4Ig treatment causes anergy in HSV-specific CD4
+ T cells but not in CD8
+ T cells. Day 5 draining LN cells from CD154
−/− mice (
), CTLA4Ig-treated mice (■), and corresponding controls (
) were analyzed directly
ex vivo or after 3 days in culture with or without IL-2 (5 ng/ml) for HSV-specific IFN-γ production in response to UVHSV or HSVgB
498–505. Plots represent fractions of IFN-γ-producing HSV-specific CD4
+ or CD8
+ cells in large CD4
+ or CD8
+ populations in CD154
−/− (a) or CTLA4Ig-treated (b) mice.
