2 de Jong et al., Supplementary Figure spots /, T cells BC BC7 BC9 BC7 BCT BCT Supplementary Figure. Background IFN-γ production on mock transfected K cells by total T cells. T cells from different donors were purified by depletion of B-cells, monocytes, NK cells, platelets, dendritic cells, granulocytes and erythrocytes (Dynabeads Untouched Human T Cells, Invitrogen). Purified T cells were incubated for hrs with K cells transfected with vector only (mock) at an APC to T cell ratio of : and the number of IFN-gamma producing cellls was measured using IFN-γ Elispot assay. (mean ± S.D.)

CDb, CDc and CDd restricted T cell responses against CD-transfected K cells. CD-autoreactive T cell lines and NKT cell clones were incubated with K cells transfected with vector only (K mock), transfected with CD or K CD cells pretreated with anti-cd blocking antibody or isotype control. After hrs supernatant was analyzed for IL- release using HT bioassay or IFN-γ using ELISA. (mean ± S.D.)

Ex vivo response of total T cells against K cells transfected with CDa, CDb or CDc T cells from donors were purified by depletion of B-cells, monocytes, NK cells, platelets, dendritic cells, granulocytes and erythrocytes (Dynabeads Untouched Human T Cells, Invitrogen). Purified T cells were incubated with K cells transfected with CDa, CDb or CDc in an IFN-gamma Elispot assay (mean ± S.D.). Blocking antibodies to CD or were added to confirm the CD specificity of the response.

IFN-γ and IL- production by CDa-autoreactive T cell clones CDa autoreactive T cell clones were incubated at an APC : T cell ratio of : for 8 hrs with K CDa cells pretreated with anti-cda or. RNA was extracted and after transcription the cdna was analyzed by real -time PCR for CDa dependent upregulation of IFN-gamma and IL- message. Samples were normalized to beta-actin.
