Impaired immune response in ΔDC mice. (A) Frequency of OT-II cells in the spleen after adoptive transfer and before (open bars) or 4 d after (filled bars) MVA-OVA immunization of ΔDC or control mice. Pooled results are from two separate experiments. n = 4; *, P < 0.028. (B) Transferred OT-II cells (Thy1.1+) are less activated (CD62Lneg) in ΔDC as compared with control mice. (C) Kinetics of expansion of Kb-OVA257-264 pentamer-specific CD8 T cells in ΔDC mice (open circles) or controls (filled circles) after immunization with MVA-OVA. n = 3 ΔDC mice and 2 controls. Error bars show SD. (D) Dot plots are gated on CD8+ cells and show staining of Kb-OVA257-264 pentamers versus CD62L. (E) Number of adult worms in the small intestine of four ΔDC mice or controls on day 10 after N. brasiliensis infection from two independent experiments. The filled circles show worm counts from individual mice. The bars show the means. (F) Frequency of CD4 T cells (CD4+Siglec-F) and eosinophils (CD4Siglec-F+) in dispersed total lung tissue of ΔDC mice and controls. Dot plots are representative of four mice per group.
