Total effector cells were measured on the basis of spot-forming cells (SFCs) secreting interferon γ (IFN-γ), with or without secretion of interleukin 2 (IL-2); effector memory cells were measured on the basis of SFCs secreting IFN-γ and IL-2; total memory cells were measured on the basis of SFCs secreting IL-2, with or without secretion of IFN-γ; central memory cells were measured on the basis of SFCs secreting IL-2 but not IFN-γ; and differentiated effector cells were measured on the basis of SFCs secreting IFN-γ but not IL-2.

Abbreviations: ELISPOT, enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot; gpELISA, VZV glycoprotein–based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
