SLP-76-deficient DP thymocytes cannot transduce TCR-mediated signals. (A). TCR-induced calcium flux was measured in DP-gated thymocytes as described in Materials and methods. (B) Representative FACS of thymocytes from 11-wk-old mice stained with HSA and TCR β. Numbers represent the percentage of cells in the indicated regions. (C) Representative FACS of DP-gated thymocytes from SLP-76F/FCD4cre and control mice. (D) Thymocytes were left unstimulated or were stimulated with plate-bound anti-CD3, plate-bound CD3 plus CD28, or dexamethasone for 14 h. Acquired cells were gated on DP cells and assessed for exclusion of TOPRO-3. The percentage of TOPRO-3 DP cells relative to total DP cells is shown as percent viable. The reduction in viability of control cells stimulated with CD3 plus CD28 was statistically significant (*P < 0.05). (E) Thymocytes were left unstimulated or were stimulated for 2 h then stained for CD4, CD8, and nur77. Line graphs are gated on DP cells.
