Hi FLOWers,

We are doing mixed lymphocyte reactions and want to detect the activated T cells by
flow cytometry, so we can examine them for cytokine production.

asking around people have suggested we stain for either CD25, CD69 or CD71.

I am not familiar with these markers, do they appear early or late, after how many
hours etc.
and any suggestions on the best time points to look for cytokines.
