Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) H. polygyrus-rechallenged Csf2rb+/+ and Csf2rb−/− mice were analyzed for quantitation of H. polygyrus eggs/gram feces over time. (B) Naïve and H. polygyrus-rechallenged Csf2rb+/+ and Csf2rb−/− mice were analyzed for quantitation of intestinal granulomas. (C) Naïve and H. polygyrus-rechallenged Csf2rb+/+ and Csf2rb−/− mice were analyzed by flow cytometry for quantitation of SILP myeloid cells. (D) Wild type mice were rechallenged with H. polygyrus concurrent with control IgG, αGM-CSF, αIL-5, or αGM-CSF plus αIL-5 antibody treatment and were analyzed for quantitation of H. polygyrus eggs/gram feces over time. (E) Naïve (open circles) and H. polygyrus-rechallenged mice (filled triangles) treated as in (D) were analyzed for quantitation of intestinal granulomas. Data are pooled from 2 independent experiments (A-C) or are from 1 experiment (D and E). Data are mean ± s.e.m. Significance calculated with an unpaired Student’s t-test.
Article Snippet: For in vivo antibody blockade, mice were injected i.p. with 300 μg of αGM-CSF (Leinco, MP1–22E9), αIL-5 (BioXCell, TRFK5), or control polyclonal rat IgG (Sigma Aldrich I4131) every other day from the day of reinfection.
