CCL11 blockade inhibits the 4T1 cell-induced proportion of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Treg cells and the release of IL-2 and TGF-β1 in vivo. BALB/c nude mice were intravenously injected with 4T1 cells and intraperitoneally injected with anti-CCL11 neutralizing (100 µg) every 48 h (n=6 per group). (A) Representative images of the histological inspection of mouse lungs at 21 days post-treatment. Scale bar, 100 µm. (B) Representative plots and (C) quantification of the proportion of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Treg cells, measured by flow cytometry. (D) Serum levels of CCL11, IL-2 and TGF-β1, measured by ELISA. ****P<0.0001 vs. the control group; ####P<0.0001 vs. the 4T1 cell group. CCL11, C-C motif chemokine ligand 11; Foxp3, forkhead box P3; Treg, T regulatory; IL, interleukin; TGF, transforming growth factor.
