Marginal zone precursor B cells are near CD4 T cells in the vicinity of germinal center (GC) light zone end in the spleen of BXD2 mice. Confocal images of a representative BXD2 spleen section stained with anti-IgM (red), anti-CD23 (green), and anti-CD4 (white) antibodies, and peanut agglutinin (PNA) (blue). CD23hiIgMlo follicular (FO) B cells are green-colored; CD23loIgMhi marginal zone (MZ) B cells are red-colored; CD23hiIgMhi marginal zone precursor (MZP) B cells are yellow-colored; and PNA+ GC B cells are blue-colored. Bottom row displays higher magnifications of boxed areas in top row (FO: follicular B cells; GC: germinal center; MZ: marginal zone B cells; MZP: marginal zone precursor B cells; PNA: peanut agglutinin).
