This table represents the percentage of AnnexinV⁺ WT and KO CD44^hiCD8 and CD44^hiCD4 cells after culturing the splenocytes of naïve (day 0) or day 2 p.i. chimaeric mice in the presence of either IgG control or the Fas agonist Jo2 for 16 hours. (n = 4 mice per timepoint, ± = SEM).

*p ≤ 0.05 between IgG and Jo2 conditions

**p ≤ 0.05 between WT and KO under the IgG or Jo2 condition
