doi: 10.1038/s41467-024-54757-2
Figure Lengend Snippet: a Representative FACS plots for analysis of CD11c + CD11b + cells in each group are shown. b , c Phenotypic characterisation of BMDCs from different groups of cells is shown. The frequency ( b ) of the cells expressing the indicated markers and MFI values ( c ) for the markers are summarised as bar graphs. Three biological replicates were used for each condition. d , e Bar-graph show the expression of the key genes involved in type I IFN pathway in the GM-CSF + IL-4 CD11c + CD11b + cells generated from young, aged and Rab8a-OE aged cells upon stimulation with IAV. Three technical replicates were used for each condition. f , g FACS-sorted GM-CSF + IL-4 CD11c + CD11b + cells generated from young, aged and Rab8a-OE were pulsed with ovalbumin and then co-cultured with OT1 cells to measure their capability to stimulate OT1 cells. f Offset histograms show the extent of cell divisions in OT1 cells upon co-incubation. g Bar-graph depicts the frequency of CD8 + T cells in each division. Three technical replicates were used for each condition. The data is representative of four individual replicates. The levels of statistical significance were analysed by One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey Kramer post hoc test and the p-values are shown.
