Figure 1. Hepatic NKT cell number and function are reduced within the steatotic liver.

Figure 1

A. Hepatic mononuclear cells were analyzed by flow cytometry for T cell receptor beta (TCRβ ) and NK1.1 expression or TCRβ and binding to CD1d-tetramer loaded with PBS57 in mice fed choline sufficient diet (CSD) or choline deficient diet (CDD) for 10 weeks. Representative dot plots presented. B. Hepatic IL4 protein expression was measured by ELISA 3 hours following i.v. alpha galactosylceramide (αGal, 200ng/g) administration to 10 week CSD fed or CDD fed mice. n= 6-9 mice per group. *p<0.05 vs. CSD fed vehicle treated mice, +p<0.05 vs. CSD fed, αGal treated mice.
