Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Representative images of Vav1-Cre –derived 28-day-old mice. ( B ) Total BWs of 28-day-old mice. ( C ) Kaplan-Meier survival curves; the median survival of Dpf2 Δ/Δ mice was 28 days. ( D ) Representative images of organs from 28-day-old mice. ( E ) Total number of cells in BM, spleen, and thymus. ( F ) CBC of PB in approximately 28-day-old mice ( n = 18). Hb, hemoglobin; PLT, platelets. ( G ) Representative H&E staining of BM, spleen, and thymus from 28-day-old mice. Scale bars: 50 μm. ( H and I ) Representative H&E staining of liver ( G ) and lung ( H ) from end-stage Dpf2 Δ/Δ and age-matched Dpf2 fl/fl mice. Scale bars: 200 μm. ( J ) Representative CD68/macrosialin IHC staining of lung and liver. Scale bars: 200 μm (lung IHC), 50 μm ( Dpf2 fl/fl liver), and 100 μm ( Dpf2 Δ/Δ liver). ( K ) Representative CD69 IHC staining of lung and liver infiltrates. Scale bars: 50 μm. ( L ) Plasma cytokine levels. Values correspond to the mean spot pixel density relative to background from 4 mice/genotype. ( M ) Chemistry profiling of PB from 28-day-old mice ( n = 3). ( N ) Serum ferritin and sCD25 plasma levels. All bar graph data represent the mean ± SD. *** P < 0.001, by 2-tailed, unpaired Student’s t test ( B , M , and N ) and ordinary, 1-way ANOVA ( E and F ).
Article Snippet: Plasma was used for the cytokine array analyses (R&D Systems, ARY028); the ferritin ELISA kit (ALPCO, 41-FERMS-E01); the sCD25 ELISA kit (G-Biosciences, IT5809); and chemistry profiling (HESKA; catalog 6330, COMP/EWRAP).
