Late-stage thymocyte development is defective in NCoR1-deficient mice. a, b Quantitative RT-PCR analysis of Ncor1 mRNA levels in indicated tissues (a, n = 5), and sorted CD4CD8 double-negative (DN) thymocytes (n = 3) and CD4+CD8+ double-positive (DP) (n = 6) (b) thymocytes from NCoR1-deficient (cKO) and wild-type (WT) mice. c, d Total cell numbers (c) and surface expression of CD4 and CD8 (d) on thymocytes from cKO (n = 5) and WT (n = 5) mice detected by flow cytometry. e Absolute cell numbers of DP, CD4+ or CD8+ single-positive (SP) thymocytes from cKO and WT mice (n = 5 for each group), as the product of total thymocytes multiplied by the percentage of cells found in that population. f Expression profiles of CD62L vs. CD69 or CD24 on cKO (n = 3) and WT (n = 3) CD4 SP thymocytes detected by flow cytometry. g Cell numbers of each subpopulation gated in (f). h Expression of CD4 and CD8 (right) from mix-bone marrow chimeras generated from CD45.1+/− WT and CD45.2+ cKO (left) donors (n = 4 to 5). i Quantification of each subpopulation gated in (h). The data are representative of two independent experiments (a, b, h) or three independent experiments (cf). Statistical significance was analyzed using the two-tailed Student’s t test (*P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001; NS, not significant)
