Diagnostic Value of CD25, CD69, and CD134 on Tuberculosis-Specific Antigen-Stimulated CD4+ T Cells for Tuberculous Pleurisy

Figure 2

Representative flow cytometry analysis showing the gating strategy for the analyses of CD4+ T cells coexpressing CD25/CD69/CD134. Representative ATB, HC, TP, and NTP subjects were tested for CD4+ T cells coexpressing CD25/CD69/CD134 markers in negative tubes (N), test tubes (T), and positive tubes (PHA). The results of the ATB and HC group were from peripheral blood, and the results of the TP and NTP group were from pleural fluid. ATB = active tuberculosis; HC = healthy control; TP = tuberculous pleurisy; NTP = nontuberculous pleurisy.
