Figure 4. Inhibition of B cell precursor growth is acquired with old age by ABC and is not seen with follicular (FO) B cells.
ABC, FO splenic B cells, or FO-like bone marrow B cells (2 × 105) from young or aged B6 mice were co-cultured in transwells with young adult bone marrow cells (1 × 106) as in Figures 1-3. IL-7 CFU data are cumulative from 4-12 experiments, with the exception of FO-like old cells used in 2 experiments. Statistical significance as shown: *, p<0.04; ****, p<0.0001.
