Acute deprivation of RA signaling alters splenic cDC composition without impacting subset proliferation or survival. Mice fed a normal (Ctrl) diet were injected (i.p.) daily for 10 d with a pan-RAR antagonist (220 µg BMS493) or DMSO vehicle Ctrl. Spleens from treated mice were then harvested and analyzed by flow cytometry by gating on live cDCs (CD11chighI-A/E+). (A–C) Scatter plot showing the ratio of splenic CD11b+CD8α/CD11bCD8α+ cDCs (A) and bar graphs demonstrating the frequency of either annexin V surface (B) or Ki67 intranuclear staining (C) in gated cDC subsets from Ctrl diet mice treated either with BMS493 or DMSO; n = 4 mice per group. Results from one of two representative experiments are shown. Bars indicate means ± SEM of individually evaluated mice. **, P < 0.01 (unpaired Student’s t test).
