(A) Immunophenotyping of circulating lymphocytes at the last observation (above) compared with immunophenotyping of circulating lymphocytes in a healthy donor (below). (B) TCR β and δ receptor rearrangements. TCR β (above) shows a monoclonal rearrangement, while TCR δ (below) is polyclonal.Abbreviations: CM, central memory T CD8+ cells; EM, effector memory T CD8+ cells; naïve, naïve T CD8+ cells; TEMRA, terminal effector memory T CD8+ cells.
