a Flow cytometry of cDC in spleen (top row), pLN (middle row) and thymus (bottom row) from WT and Zeb1-dcKO mice. b Frequencies and numbers of XCR1+SIRPα- cDC1 and XCR1-SIRPα+ cDC2 among cDC in spleen, pLN, thymus from mice as in a (spleen: WT, n = 4; Zeb1-dcKO, n = 5; pLN: WT, n = 5; Zeb1-dcKO, n = 4; thymus: WT, n = 3; Zeb1-dcKO, n = 4). c Flow cytometry of cDC in liver (top row) and lung (bottom row) from WT and Zeb1-dcKO mice. d Frequencies and numbers of CD103+CD11b cDC1 and CD103-CD11b+ cDC2 among cDC in liver, lung from mice as in c (WT, n = 3; Zeb1-dcKO, n = 4). e Flow cytometry of Lin- myeloid cells (Lin-=CD3-CD19- hereinafter) in spleen (top row) and pLN (bottom row) from WT and Zeb1-dcKO mice. f Frequency and number of CD317+Ly6C+ pDC among Lin- myeloid cells from mice as in e (spleen, WT, n = 4; Zeb1-dcKO, n = 4; pLN, WT, n = 3; Zeb1-dcKO, n = 4). g UMAP plot showing unsupervised clustering of total splenic cDC (top row) and the population individually (bottom row) from WT and Zeb1-dcKO mice by scRNA-seq analysis. h Flow cytometry of splenic cDC1 (top row) and cDC2 (bottom row) from WT and Zeb1-dcKO mice. i Frequencies of dying (Annexin V+ 7-AAD+) splenic cDC1 and cDC2 among total cDC1 or cDC2 from mice as in h (WT, n = 3; Zeb1-dcKO, n = 4). j Flow cytometry of splenic cDC from mixed BM chimeric mice. k Frequencies of donor cDC (among total cDC) and cDC1 (among donor cDC) in spleen from mixed BM chimeric mice as in j (B6:WT, n = 8; B6:KO, n = 10). l Flow cytometry of CD11b+ cells in spleen of mixed BM chimeric mice. m Frequencies of donor CD11b+ cells (among total CD11b+ cells) and CD11b+Ly6G+ neutrophils cells (among donor CD11b+ cells) in spleen of mixed BM chimeric mice as in l (B6:WT, n = 4; B6:KO, n = 5). Each symbol represents an individual mouse, small horizontal lines indicate the mean (± s.d.). Data are representative of two (hm) or three (af) independent experiments. Data are presented as mean ± s.d. Statistical analysis was performed using two-tailed unpaired Student’s t-test. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
