Recruitments and/or activations of B cells from LNs and peripheral blood in mice vaccinated with rAd5-G-H. BALB/c mice (n = 10 in each group) were immunized i.m. with 108 GFU rAd5-G-H, rAd5-GFP, or DMEM. Single-cell suspensions of LNs (n = 6) were collected and prepared at 3, 6, and 9 dpi, and those from peripheral blood (n = 4) were collected at 7 and 14 dpi. The cells were stained with antibodies to CD19 and CD40 and then analyzed by flow cytometry. (A,D) The gating strategies for analyzing the B cells and (B,E) representative flow cytometric plots for measuring recruited and/or activated B cells (CD19+ CD40+) are shown. Analyses of activated B cells from the LNs (C) at 3, 6, and 9 dpi and from the peripheral blood (F) at 7 and 14 dpi are presented. Statistical analyses were tested by Student’s t-test in SPSS 22.0 software. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, and ***P < 0.001.
