AT2s are the main nonhematopoietic source of GM-CSF in the neonatal lung. (A and B) Analysis of P10 lungs isolated from Csf2+/+ (gray) and Csf2+/fl (blue) mice. (A) Flow cytometry analysis of tdTomato expression in the CD45 compartment. Isolated populations include AT2s (G1.1: CD45CD31EpCAM+MHCII+CD104); airway epithelial cells (G1.2: CD45CD31EpCAM+MHCIICD104+); fibroblasts (G2.1: CD45CD31EpCAMPDGFRα+CD49f); CD45CD31EpCAMPDGFRαCD49f cells (G2.2); CD45CD31EpCAMPDGFRα CD49f+ cells (G2.3); and endothelial cells (G3: CD45CD31+EpCAM). (B) Flow cytometry analysis of tdTomato expression in the CD31EpCAM+ compartment of fixed lungs, gated on CD45 cells. Isolated populations include AT2s (G4.1: proSP-C+CD104MHCII+; G6.1: NaPi-IIb+CD104MHCII+), and airway epithelial cells (G5: proSP-CCD104+; G7: NaPi-IIbCD104+). (A and B) Data are from one experiment representative of two independent experiments.
