Histological examination of Rag-2 KO mice with adoptive transfer

Organ Donor cells Score Inflammatory cell infiltration in the exocrine pancreas Insulitis
Large intestine CD8+ 0 to ∼1

The table summarizes the score of inflammation of the large intestine and pancreas from Rag-2 KO mice 3 wk after transfer of the combination of CD44+RFP + CD8+ or 4 wk after transfer of other indicated T cells from pancreatic LNs and the pancreas of male FoxP3-GFPcreKI/Y Rosa-RFP PD-1 KO mice. Score 0, normal colon mucosa or absent of lymphocytic cell infiltration; score 1, mild mucosal changes or mild infiltrates; score 2, mucosal abrasion or moderate infiltrates; score 3, mucosal erosion, ulceration, or marked infiltrates; score 4, mucosa atrophy and few mitosis in crypt, or almost complete destruction of organs.
