GM1 expression on murine thymocyte subsets. Total thymocytes were isolated and analyzed by flow cytometric analysis after staining with CTB-FITC, anti-CD4 Percp and anti-CD8-PE antibodies. (A) Percentage of CD4+ and CD8+ thymocyte subsets expressing GM1. (B) The median fluorescence intensity (MFI) of GM1 expression by distinct CD4 and CD8 expressing T cells (n = 5). A significant difference in the GM1 expression on the cell surface was observed between CD4+CD8+ and CD8+CD4- or CD4+CD8- T cells (p ≤ 0.05) and between CD8+CD4- and CD4+CD8- T cells (p ≤ 0.05).
