Maternal deprivation induces long-term changes in the immune system. (A) Adaptive immune cell population analysis. T cells gated as CD3+ from total lymphocytes. B cells gated as CD45RA+ gated from total lymphocytes; CD4+ and CD8+ gated from within the T cell population (B) expression levels of NK and NKT-like cells. NK and NKT cells were gated from total lymphocytes as the brighter population expressing CD161a+ and being CD3- or CD3+, respectively.; (C) Sub-gating of the NKT-cell population from panel (B) by CD4+ and CD8+ markers. Data is presented as mean ± SEM of 12 animals per group. Statistics: Two-way ANOVA; *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001; ****p < 0.0001, NS, Not Significant. Representative Figures for flow data are included in the Supplementary Material.
