Elevated frequencies, but poor activity of ILC3 in the small intestine of BALB/c mice. (a) Representative FACS plots of CD4 and RORγt expression by small intestinal cells in G. muris-infected BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice 14 days post-infection (left panel) and of IL-17A expression by CD4-RORγt+ cells in naïve and infected BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice (right panel). The histogram plot reports CD90 expression by CD4-RORγt+ cells. (b) Frequencies of CD4-RORγt+ cells in siLP cells. (c) Frequencies of IL-17A+ cells in CD4-RORγt+ cells after PMA/ionomycin stimulation. Data are pooled from three (b) or two (c) independent experiments with n = 3–5/group. Statistical analysis was done using Kruskal-Wallis test combined with Dunn’s multiple comparison test. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001. Further information on the phenotype of CD4-RORγt+ cells is available in Supplementary Fig. 2d–g.
