B10 cells lacking Blimp-1 failed to suppress T-cell proliferation. (A) Experimental design for the co-culture of B10 cells with anti-CD3-and anti-CD28-stimulated naïve CD4+ T cells. CFSE-labeled CD4+ T cells in the presence of anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibody were co-cultured with B10 cells from mice of the indicated genotypes for 3 days and then analyzed for CFSE dilution by FACS. (B) FACS analysis showing the frequency of dividing CFSE-labeled CD4+ T cells. Data are representative from three independent biological replicates. (C) Statistical results from three experiments in (B) are shown. Data were analyzed using an unpaired Student's t-test and are the mean ± SEM (n = 3 mice per group). *p < 0.05 and ***p < 0.001. (D) GO analysis showed a significant enrichment for genes in “T cell selection” and “leukocyte migration” in the category of immune system process within the Biological Process ontology in anti-CD40 stimulated Cko B10 cells as compared with genes in anti-CD40 stimulated Ctrl B10 cells. The significant terms in the immune system process within the Biological Process ontology were all listed.
