Figure 5. Increased numbers of γδ lineage T cells in the absence of Maml1. (A) Flow cytometric analysis showed an increased percentage of TCRγ+ cells among CD3+ thymocytes in recipients of Maml1−/− compared with Maml1+/− progenitors (representative examples). Numbers indicate the percentage of cells in each box. Host-derived CD45.1+ cells were excluded from the analysis. (B) Absolute number of donor-derived CD3+ γδ T cells in the thymus of all the fetal liver chimeras that were analyzed (Maml1+/−, ▵, n = 21; Maml1−/−, ▴, n = 9). The increased number of γδ T cells in Maml1−/− compared with Maml1+/− recipients was statistically significant (P < .05; Student t test).
