MMTV-6 and MMTV-9 induced deletion of TCR Vβ3 and Vβ5 T cells. Thymocytes, splenocytes, and lymph node cells were isolated from 8-wk-old C57BL/6 (n = 3), BALB/c (n = 12), and BALB/c TRAIL−/− mice (n = 11). Cell suspensions were stained with antibodies to CD4, CD8, CD3, and TCR Vβ3, Vβ5, Vβ6, or Vβ8. (A) Histograms demonstrate expression of TCR Vβ3, TCR Vβ5, TCR Vβ6, or TCR Vβ8 on CD4+ CD3high or CD8+ CD3high thymocytes. (B) TCR Vβ3, TCR Vβ5, TCR Vβ6, or TCR Vβ8 cells as a percentage of CD3+CD4+CD8 and CD3+CD4CD8+ subsets of thymocytes, splenocytes, and peripheral lymph node cells.
