Compartmental differential gene expression, NLF versus PB CD56+ cells. (A) Heat map of differential gene expression in NLF (blue bar) versus peripheral blood-derived (red bar) NK/ILC1 cells, red = upregulation, green = downregulation. (B) Bar graph of differential ITGA2 expression in NLF CD56+ NK/ILC1s in smokers (black bar) and nonsmokers (grey bar). (C–J) Bar graphs of differential gene expression in PB CD56+ NK/ILC1s in smokers (black bar) and nonsmokers (grey bar): (C) CD69, (D) NCAM1, (E) TNF, (F) NCR1, (G) CD244, (H) GZMB, (I) SH2D1B, (J) JAK1. Mean ± SE, *P ≤ 0.05, **P ≤ 0.01.
