Proliferation of splenocytes in response to stimulation by MOG35-55 peptide. Mice were infected with H. pylori (Hp/EAE), or given a placebo dose (Broth/EAE). After 3 weeks, EAE induction treatment with MOG35-55 peptide was administered. Splenocytes were isolated from mice after a further 3 weeks. Splenocytes were stimulated with MOG35-55 peptide and incorporation of [3H]thymidine was used to measure the proliferative response in counts per minute (CPM). The median CPMs following stimulation with anti-CD3/28 antibodies were 118946 and 57633 for the Broth/EAE and Hp/EAE groups, respectively. Bars depict the mean CPM for mice in each group; error bars represent SD. p-values were calculated using Mann–Whitney U-tests.
