Depletion of CD71+ cells enhances IL-17, IFN-γ secreting and antibody producing adaptive immune cells following immunization. (A) The cartoon shows treatment and vaccination time points. (B) Representative plots showing IL-17 and IFN-γ producing CD4+ T cells among splenocytes following stimulation with HKBP for 6 h. (C) Percent CD4+ T cells secreting IFN-γ; (D) secreting IL-17 and (E) secreting IFN-γ and IL-17 following stimulation with HKBP for 6 h. (F) Percent CD8+ T cells secreting IFN-γ among splenocytes following stimulation with HKBP for 6 h. (G) Anti-B. pertussis-specific IgG antibody in serum, (H) anti-B. pertussis-specific IgA antibody in serum of either treated mice with anti-CD71 or isotype control group were measured by ELISA as described in methods. Each point represents data from an individual mouse, representative of three independent experiments. Bar, mean ± one standard error.
