NKT1 cells are not detrimentally affected by loss of MyD88 signaling during acute MCMV infection. (A) Frequency and (B) absolute number of NKT1, NKT2, and NKT17 cells (CD45+CD1dtet+TCRβ+) in the spleen and liver of MyD88 control (black) and MyD88 cKO (open) animals at 36 hours post-infection with MCMV. NKT cell lineages were differentiated using PLZF, RORγt, and T-bet expression. Data are pooled from two independent experiments (n=9–10) and error bars indicate SEM.
