Comparison of CD69+ populations in PF and blood. a CD69+ T cells in PF and blood show distinct variation based on expression levels of all tested markers by PCA. b Composition of major subsets in CD69+ T cells. Compared to blood, CD69+ T cells in PF consist higher frequencies of CD8 and EM T cells. Means ± SEM are shown in plots. Statisitics were calculated by Wilcoxon’s signed-rank test and p < 0.001 for all comparisons. c Expression levels of markers that significantly differ in CD69+ T cells between PF and blood. Compared to blood counterpart, PF CD69+ T cells show reduced activation and functional activity. Means ± SEM are shown in plots. All comparisons between PF and blood showed significance (p < 0.05) by Wilcoxon’s signed-rank test
