-
5 × 106 TH17 cells (n=6), whole splenic T cells (n=4), or CD4+/CD25− (n=5) cells were transferred with T-cell–depleted bone marrow cells into lethally irradiated B6D2 recipients. At day 14 post-transplantation kidneys were harvested and processed as described in Materials and Methods. TT = total T cells, CD4 = CD4+/CD25− cells.

-
3 × 106 naïve whole T cells from WT C57BL/6 mice were transferred with T-cell–depleted bone marrow cells into lethally irradiated B6D2 recipients. Seven days after transfer animals were anesthetized with avertin and organs were imaged with a Zeiss SteREO Lumar.V12 microscope with eGFP bandpass filter. Brightfield images (left), and GFP images (middle) were taken for each organ. GFP intensities (right) were determined by software analysis. (A) liver (B) lung (C) spleen (D) mesenteric lymph node.

-
1.35 × 106 eGFP+ TH17 cells were transferred with T-cell–depleted bone marrow cells into lethally irradiated B6D2 recipients. Eight days post-transplant lymphocytes were extracted from the lung and stimulated as in Fig. 1 followed by intracellular cytokine staining for IFN-γ. Plot derived from eGFP+ / IL-17− gate.
