Figure 5. Flt3L treatment expands a population of ILC type 1 cells differently from NK cells. (A) Representative flow cytometry analysis of TBET and CD127 expression on Lin−CD7+ cells in liver of a PBS- and a littermate Flt3L-treated BRGSF mouse. (B) Expression of CD117, EOMES, CD161, and CD94 (histograms) on liver TBET+CD127− (red), TBET+CD127+ (blue), and TBET−CD127+ cells (gray) assessed by flow cytometry. (C) Expression of CD127, CD16, and NKp46 on liver Lin−TBET+ cells, assessed by flow cytometry. (D) Frequency among hCD45+ cells (left) and total number (right) of Lin−CD7+CD127+TBET+ liver cells. (E) Representative functional analysis by IFN-γ intracellular flow cytometry after phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate/ionomycin plus cytokine 4-hour stimulation of TBET+CD127− (red) and TBET+CD127+ (blue) cells. Gated cells were determined using unstimulated controls. (F) Flow cytometry representation of IFN-γ production by Lin−CD127+TBET+CD161+ ILC1 cells in response to TLR-mediated in vivo stimulation. Composite data from of 3 to 4 mice per condition are shown at left. Numbers in plots represent frequencies within gates.
