Figure 1. TSLP Tg expression rescues B- and T-cell development in IL-7−/− mice. IL-7−/−, WT, and IL-7−/− K14-TSLP Tg mice were analyzed at 12 weeks of age. (A) Absolute cell number per 2 femurs. (B) Regions indicate the pro-B/pre-B-I (CD19+ c-kit+), pre-BII (CD19+ CD25+), mature (CD19+ B220high IgM+), and immature (CD19+ B220+ IgM+) B cells in the BM. Numbers are mean and standard deviation of percentage (n = 5). (C) Absolute thymocyte number and (D) thymocyte profiles of DN1 (c-kithigh CD44+ CD25−), DN2 (c-kithigh CD44+ CD25+), DN3 (CD44− CD25+), DN4 (CD44− CD25−), DP (CD4+ CD8+), and SP (CD4+ CD8−, CD4−CD8+) thymocytes as well as of immature (CD24lo/− γδ+) and mature (CD24+ γδ+) γδ T cells are shown. (E) Pregated on CD4− CD8− cells, percentages of Vγ2 and Vγ1.1 T cells in the thymus are shown. (F) Pregated on CD45+ cells, percentages of Vγ3+ CD3+ cells in the skin are shown. Histograms represent the mean and standard deviation from analyzing 5 animals.
