Figure Legend Snippet: A) Flow cytometric evaluation of CD4 + T cell proliferation responses induced by IL-36α stimulated splenic CD11c + cells. Splenic CD11c + cells were incubated with increasing doses of IL-36α for 2 h. Following incubation, media containing IL-36α was removed and CFSE-labeled CD4 + T cells were co-cultured with IL-36α stimulated CD11c + cells. CFSE dilution was used to evaluate T cell proliferation responses 96 h following co-culture. CD4 + T cell proliferation was proportional to the concentration of IL-36α used for stimulating CD11c + cells used in the co-culture. Flow cytometry plot presented is representative of quadruplicate samples in one out of two independent experiments. B) Flow cytometric evaluation of antigen-specific CD4 + T cell proliferation responses induced by IL-36α stimulated splenic CD11c + cells. Splenic CD11c + cells were incubated with increasing doses of IL-36α and 100 ng/mL OVA 323-339 for 2 h. Following incubation, media containing IL-36α and the OVA peptide was removed and CFSE-labeled CD4 + T cells from OTII TCR transgenic mice were co-cultured with IL-36α stimulated, OVA peptide pulsed CD11c + cells. CFSE dilution in the culture was used to evaluate T cell proliferation responses 96 h following co-culture. CD4 + T cell proliferation was proportional to the concentration of IL-36α used for stimulating CD11c + cells used in the co-culture. Flow cytometry plot presented is representative of quadruplicate samples in one out of two independent experiments.
