  1. aMean ± SD of the indicated number of different subjects. When available, multiple values from single donors were included as single means in the calculations. Data obtained from several sources, including published material [4,5].
  2. bPercentage proliferation (H3-thymidine uptake for γ+/− and δ+/−donors, CFSE dilution for δ+/leaky donors) referred to the maximum response of a healthy control in each experiment.
