Constitutive NIK expression expands ex-Foxp3+ T cells in vivo. CD4 T cells from NIKtg/Foxp3Cre/R26YFP and WT/Foxp3Cre/R26YFP littermates were assessed for percent ex-Foxp3+ T cells (defined as percent of total CD4+YFP+ cells that are Foxp3). (a) Representative FACS plots from blood showing the gating scheme. (b) Percent ex-Foxp3+ T cells in blood over time. Each symbol and line represents an individual mouse. (c,d) Percent and number of ex-Foxp3+ T cells in indicated organs at euthanasia. mLN, mesenteric lymph nodes; pLN, peripheral lymph nodes. All data are from one representative experiment of 3. Bar graphs depict means +/− SD (n = 4 mice per group). *p < 0.05.
