CD8M	52.0 ± 1.5 (30)	56.5 ± 1.4 (38)	0.03
CD4P	14.8 ± 0.8 (30)	17.7 ± 0.97 (35)	0.03

T‐cell subset levels measured in peripheral blood at 18 months of age. Values shown are means ± SD; number of mice tested is given in parentheses. The P‐value column represents the result of unpaired, two‐tailed Student's t‐test comparison. CD4 and CD8 cells are presented as a percentage of CD3 cells, CD4M and CD4P cells as a percentage of CD4 cells, and CD8M and CD8P cells as a percentage of CD8 cells.
