CD40/CD154 interactions have a limited role in APC maturation. A, Pinnae thickness of WT (solid lines) and CD154−/− (dashed line) mice after parasite exposure. Total (B) and MHC II+ DEC (C) population cell number recovered after culture of skin biopsies (day 4) from naive and WT (■) and CD154−/− mice (□). D and E, MHC II and CD86 expression by CD11c+ (left panels) and F4/80+ cells (right panels) from WT and CD154−/− mice. F, Isotype control-stained CD11c+ and F4/80+ cells shown for comparison. Values indicate mean percentage (n = 4–6 pinnae) of gated cells that are MHC II+ CD86+. Significant differences are between WT and CD154−/− mice.
