Percentages of IL-4 and IFN-γ secreting NKT cells within total, CD4⁺ and DN subsets.

<p>Horizontal bars indicate medians of percentages of IFN-γ (upper panel) and IL-4 (lower panel) secreting NKT cells within total (left), DN (middle) and CD4⁺ (right) NKT cell subsets. Cord blood (CB) NKT cells and peripheral blood (PB) NKT cells from adults are compared.</p

Representative dot-plots of IL-4 and IFN-γ secreting NKT cells within total, CD4⁺ and DN subsets.

<p>NKT cells from adult peripheral blood (upper two panels) and cord blood NKT cells (lower two panels) are compared. NKT cells were first identified by double positive staining of Vα24 and Vβ11 TCR chains (left). IFN-γ and IL-4 secreting NKT cells are shown within total (left), DN (middle) and CD4⁺ (right) NKT cell subsets.</p
