Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A and B ) Normalized cell count of classical macrophages (CD11b + CD11c – F4/80 + Gr1 – ), hybrid macrophages (CD11b + CD11c + F4/80 + Gr1 – ), cDC1s (CD11b – CD11c + F4/80 – Gr1 – ), and cDC2s (CD11b + CD11c + F4/80 – Gr1 – ) per islet ( A ) or per pancreatic lymph node ( B ) from euglycemic 14-week-old NOD βST or littermate mice. ( C ) Representative flow cytometry histogram of IL-12p35 expression in cDC2s from islets of euglycemic 14-week-old NOD βST and NOD littermate mice, compared with isotype control. ( D ) Representative flow cytometry histogram of IL-12p35 expression in hybrid macrophages from islets of euglycemic NOD βST and littermate mice, compared with isotype control. Vertical line denotes the positive gate. ( E ) Quantification of IL-12p35 expression shown in C and D across 7 NOD βST mice, 16 NOD littermate mice, and 5 isotype controls. Error bars represent SD. Mann-Whitney U tests were used to examine statistical differences between groups.
