JAK2 is dispensable for NK cell survival and maturation. (A) Frequency (left panel) and total numbers (right panel) of CD3NKp46+ NK cells in the spleens of Jak2WT and Jak2fl/flNcr1Cre mice were assessed by flow cytometry. (B) Splenic CD3NKp46+ NK cells were analyzed for expression of CD27 and CD11b by flow cytometry. Frequency of cells in each maturation stage is show: DN (CD27CD11b), CD27 (CD27+CD11b), DP (CD27+CD11b+), CD11b (CD27CD11b+). (C) The expression of JAK2 and β-actin was analyzed by Western blot in NK cells upon 6 days of expansion in IL-2. Scans of full blots are available in Supplementary Material. (A,B) Bar graphs represent mean ± SEM of 2–3 independent experiments; n = 5–12.
