Figure Lengend Snippet: Representative agarose gel stained with ethidium bromide showing CD4 and CD8 gene products in BALB/c nu/nu mice following lymphocyte reconstitution. RT-PCR was performed on BALB/c tongue and oral mucosa. Lane 1 shows size markers, while lane 2 shows the cDNA negative control for each gel. CD4 is not present in control nude mice (lane 3), whereas CD8 is present at all times (lanes 4, 6, and 8). CD4 is present in oral mucosa on day 4 (lane 5) and day 8 (lane 7) following lymphocyte transfer, but is not seen in the tongue until day 21 (data not shown).
Article Snippet: T-cell enrichment was carried out using commercially available CD4 + and CD8 + mouse T-cell enrichment columns (R&D, Minneapolis, Minn.), according to the manufacturer's instructions.
