sjTREC frequencies were normalized according to CD3+ T-lymphocyte proportions, as determined by flow cytometry.
TREC frequencies were normalized according to CD3+ T-lymphocyte proportions, as determined by flow cytometry. Similar results were obtained in a duplicate experiment.
sjTREC content is shown as the mean of 2 independent quantifications.
AHSCT patients who underwent transplantation were classified according to their cGVHD history/status. cGVHD+ patients (n = 10) were symptomatic at sampling time, whereas cGVHD− patients were exempt of symptoms since engraftment (n = 8) or for at least 8 months prior sampling (n = 14).
