Figure 2. IFN-γ altered the expression of Ly-49 receptors on NK cells in the uterus in an IFN-γ-induced pregnancy failure model.

Figure 2

(a–e) Syngeneically mated BALB/c females were injected with placebo or IFN-γ intraperitoneally on GD6 and sacrificed on GD8. (a) Representative flow cytometric analysis of Ly-49A and Ly-49G2 expression on gated CD3−CD49b+ NK cells in the uterus. See Supplementary Fig. S2 for the gating strategy; the numbers in the dot plots indicate the percentages of the Ly-49+ NK cells (gated on CD3−CD49b+ NK)/MFI values of Ly-49 receptor expression. Data summary of the percentages of Ly-49+ NK cells (b,d) and MFI values of Ly-49 receptor expression (c,e). Data show the mean ± SEM of three independent experiments and were obtained from three mice per group. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 by independent sample T-test.
