Figure 4. Expression of the Ahr and AHR related genes in LAKS and NK cells.

Figure 4

(A) The expression of the Ahr and AHR related genes (p23, Hsp90, Ara9 and Arnt) in LAKs that were stimulated with IL-2, IL-12 or the combination of IL-2 and IL-12 for 6 hours. Sample transcript levels were normalized to the expression of the housekeeping gene HPRT, and relative levels are shown using the media sample as a calibrator. Graphs show the pooled averages from three independent experiments. (*p<0.05 based on a Student's t test). (B) Ahr and AHR related gene (p23, Hsp90, Ara9 and Arnt) expression in NK cells sorted from the spleens of RAG1-/- mice and in vitro polarized Th17 or Th1 CD4+ T cells. Sample transcript levels were normalized to the expression of the housekeeping gene HPRT, and relative levels are shown calibrated to the Th1 sample. Results are representative of three similar experiments, and error bars are based on technical replicates. All error bars represent standard error.
