Spontaneous GC and TFH formation are corrected by loss of SAP in Roquinsan/san mice. (a) CD4+CXCR5+PD-1high TFH cells in unimmunized 10-wk-old Roquinsan/san and Roquinsan/san Sap−/− mice (P = 0.0056). Representative flow cytometric contour plots are shown (right). Data are representative of four independent experiments (n = 4 per group). (b) B220+GL-7+CD95+ GC B cells in unimmunized 10-wk-old Roquinsan/san Sap+/+ and Roquinsan/san Sap−/− mice (P = 0.0007). Representative flow cytometric contour plots are shown (right). Data are representative of four independent experiments (n = 4 per group). (c) Photomicrographs of frozen spleen sections from unimmunized 6-mo-old mice of the indicated genotypes stained with IgD (brown; all panels), PNA (blue; left), TCRβ (blue; middle), and PD-1 (blue; right). Bars, 200 µm.
