Th9 cell amounts are increased in spleen from ApoE-/- mice fed high-fat diet. A. Comparison of Th9 levels between C57BL/6J mice and ApoE-/- mice at different time points. *P<0.01 vs. age-matched C57BL/6J littermates; ▲P<0.01 vs. ApoE-/- mice at 0 and 4 weeks of high fat diet; #P<0.01 vs. ApoE-/- mice fed high fat diet for 12 weeks. B. Representative flow-cytograms of Th9 cells from a single mouse in each group. Percentages of positive cells are shown in each panel.
