Figure 5. Recently recruited NK cells are responsible for allogeneic DC killing. (A-C) B6 CD8−/− mice, treated, or not, with anti-CD62L Mel-14 mAb, were immunized with CFSEhigh syngeneic B6 DCs and CFSElow allogeneic BALB/c DCs. Forty-eight hours after injection, draining lymph nodes were removed and analyzed for the presence of NK cells and CFSE DCs (CD11cpos MHC IIhigh CFSEpos cells). (A) Absolute numbers of NK cells (TCR-βneg NK1.1pos) recovered from lymph node are indicated. (B) Expression of CD127 and Ly49D on NK cells (TCR-βneg NK1.1pos). (C) Representative CFSE profiles of injected DCs from control, Mel-14–, or PK136-treated mouse lymph nodes are shown. Numbers indicate the percentage of CFSElow BALB/c DCs among control CFSEhigh B6 DCs. A representative experiment of 3 is shown.
