  1. CD39 expression on normal lymphocytes. Results from FACS analysis of blood from 10 normal volunteers. Percentage CD39 expression is expressed as double positive cells as a percentage of the subtype of cells.
  2. *p < 0.00001 for 2 tailed T-test versus normal B-lymphocytes
  3. **p < 0.001 for 2 tailed T-test versus normal B-lymphocytes
  4. †p < 0.0001 for 2-tailed T-test versus CD4+ lymphocytes
