From: DX5+NKT cells display phenotypical and functional differences between spleen and liver as well as NK1.1-Balb/c and NK1.1+ C57Bl/6 mice

Figure 5

Cytokine production by spleen DX5+NKT cells is different in NK1.1-Balb/c compared to the NK1.1+ mice strain C57Bl/6. Isolated DX5+NKT cells were stimulated with antibodies against CD3 and CD28 for 4, 24 and 48 h. FACS-Analysis revealed a Th1 sided cytokine profile for spleen DX5+NKT cells of NK1.1+C57Bl/6 mice, whereas spleen DX5+NKT cells of NK1.1-Balb/c mice displayed a pattern with Th1 and Th2 cytokines. Results are given as mean + SEM. Experiments were repeated at least three times (* p < 0.05).
