Figure 1. Nrp1 is highly expressed on tolerant CD8+ T cells primed by a self-antigen in healthy liver.

Figure 1

Naive Gag-specific CD8+ T cells (CD90.1+) were transferred into B6 mice (naive), B6 mice bearing an immunogenic FBL tumor (immune), Alb∶Gag mice (tolerant). (A) Two days after transfer, T cells were purified by cell sorting and RNA isolated for gene expression by microarray. Graphs displays nrp1 and pdcd1 relative gene expression pooled from biological triplicate samples, and error bars represent SD. (B) Nrp1 protein expression on T cells 3 days after adoptive transfer into the naive, immune or tolerant environment. Data are representative of 3 experiments, each with 3 recipient mice per group. (C) Nrp1 protein upregulation on T cells 2 and 4 days after transfer into Alb∶Gag recipients. Data are representative of 2 time course experiments.
