Nutrient transporters expressions on T cells, B cells and plasma cells during sepsis. Expressions of GLUT1 (percentage of positive cells - Panel A), ASCT1/2 (median fluorescence intensity - MFI, Panel B) and ASCT2 (MFI, Panel C) were assessed by flow cytometry on peripheral T cells (CD3⁺ lymphocytes, blue triangles), B cells (CD19^high FS^low lymphocytes, black squares) and plasma cells (CD19^low FS^high lymphocytes, red circles) from healthy volunteers (HV, n = 9) and septic patients (n = 9) at day 1 or 2 (D1–2, n = 6), day 3 or 4 (D3–4, n = 8) and day 6, 7 or 8 (D6–8, n = 4) after the onset of septic shock. Data are represented as Tukey box-plots and individual values. ^#p < 0.05 compared with plasma cells in HV, nonparametric Mann–Whitney U test. *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.005 compared to identical cell population in HV. Non-parametric ANOVA test followed by post-hoc analysis with Dunn’s multiple comparisons tests
