(
A) Selective effect of
Rasgrp1Anaef on CD44 expression during thymic maturation. Analysis of thymocytes from mixed chimeras (described in
Figure 9E) bearing CD45.1
+ WT (filled) plus CD45.2
+
Rasgrp1Anaef (black trace) hematopoietic cells. Histograms show CD44, CD69, CD5, TCRβ expression on DP, CD4SP and CD8SP thymocytes. (
B) Column graph shows CD44 MFIs on CD45.1
+ or CD45.2
+ DP thymocytes from the mixed chimeras (in
A) as well as control WT + WT chimeras (n = 5 mice per group). p value symbols for unpaired
t tests between groups and paired
t tests within groups: **p: 0.01, *p,: 0.05.
