Immunophenotypic analysis of splenocytes from NSG oc/oc and control mice. a Representative FACS analysis of splenocytes from C57BL/6J adult WT mice, serving as technical control (top panels), from NSG mice (middle panels) and from NSG oc/oc mice (bottom panels), after red blood cells lysis. Erythroid cells are defined as TER119+NKp46-CD11b-B220-CD4-CD8- (highlighted in red); NK cells as TER119-NKp46+CD11b-B220-CD4-CD8- (light blue); myeloid cells as TER119-NKp46-CD11b+B220-CD4-CD8- (green); B cells as TER119-NKp46-CD11b-B220+CD4-CD8- (orange); CD4 and CD8 T lymphocytes as TER119-NKp46-CD11b-B220-, CD4+CD8- or CD4-CD8+, respectively (dark blue). b Histogram showing mean percentage of splenic subpopulations depicted in a in the spleen of NSG and NSG-oc/oc mice. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01.
