We next asked what the effect of removing the \glspl{dms} would have on other
phenotypes, specifically \gls{tcm} and \gls{tscm} cells. To this end we stained
cells using a 34-marker mass cytometry panel and analyzed them using a Fluidigm
Helios. After pooling the \gls{fcs} file events from each group and analyzing
them via \gls{spade} we see that there is a strong bifurcation of CD4 and CD8 T
cells. We also observe that among CD27, CD45RA, and CD45RO (markers commonly
used to identify \gls{tcm} and \gls{tscm} subtypes) we see clear `metaclusters'
composed of individual \gls{spade} clusters which are high for that marker
(\cref{fig:spade_msts}). We then gated each of these metaclusters according to
their marker levels and assigned them to one of three phenotypes for both the
CD4 and CD8 compartments: \gls{tcm} (high CD45RO, low CD45RA, high CD27),
\gls{tscm} (low CD45RO, high CD45RA, high CD27), and `transitory' \gls{tscm}
cells (mid CD45RO, mid CD45RA, high CD27). Together these represent low
differentiated cells which should be highly potent as anti-tumor therapies.
When quantifying the number of cells from each experimental group in these
phenotypes, we clearly see that the number of lower differentiated cells is much
higher in the \textit{no change} or \textit{removed} groups compared to the
\textit{added} group (\cref{fig:spade_quant}). Furthermore, the \textit{removed}
group had a much higher fraction of \gls{tscm} cells compared to the \textit{no
change} group, which had more `transitory \gls{tscm} cells'. The majority of
these cells were \cdp{8} cells. When analyzing the same data using \gls{tsne},
we observe a higher fraction of CD27 and lower fraction of CD45RO in the the
\textit{removed} group (\cref{fig:spade_tsne_all}). When manually gating on the
CD27+CD45RO- population, we see there is higher density in the \textit{removed}
group, indicating more of this population (\cref{fig:spade_tsne_stem}).
Together, these data indicate that removing \glspl{dms} at lower timepoints
leads to potentially higher expansion, lower \pthp{}, and higher fraction of
lower differentiated T cells such as \gls{tscm}, and adding \gls{dms} seems to
do the inverse.
