(a) FSC vs SSC gate was used to selected live lymphocyte population. Doublet discrimination was applied when we use FSC-H vs FSC-A. After selecting CD4 positive CD25 negative population, we used CD62L and CD44 difference to select CD4+ T cells subsets. (b) After sorting a sample of each population were run to check population purity.
