Figure Lengend Snippet: Ascorbic acid improves the cognitive level of aged mice and increases the number of CD8 + cells in aged mice. A Trajectory tracking map of mouse movement in the open field test, illustrating time spent in the central zone (seconds), average speed during movement episodes (cm/s), and total distance traveled within the central area. B Statistical chart of New Object Cognition Index. C Flow cytometry was utilized to analyze immune cell populations, including CD3 + T, CD4 + T, CD8 + T, CD11b + , and B cells, in the whole blood of middle-aged mice assigned to either the control group or the AA group ( D ). E Statistical analysis of the flow cytometry data was presented in a histogram format, with significance levels denoted as follows: ns ( P > 0.05), * ( P < 0.05), ** ( P < 0.01), and *** ( P < 0.001)

Article Snippet: The Rat IgG2b isotype and Anti-mouse CD8α-InVivo antibodies (Selleckchem) were each diluted to a final volume of 1 ml using sterile PBS and injected intraperitoneally at a dosage of 200 μg per mouse.

Techniques: Flow Cytometry, Control

Figure Lengend Snippet: AA facilitates the early differentiation of T cells while concurrently suppressing myeloid differentiation. A A schematic depicting the early and long-term differentiation of T cells in an OP9-DL1 and lin-CD117 + HSC co-culture system is presented. B The diagram illustrates the progression of T cell maturation from CD44 and CD25 negative to positive selection. C Flow cytometry analysis and statistical bar graphs are utilized to demonstrate the AA-promoted changes in T cell DN stages, including the DN1 phase (CD44 + CD25 − ), DN2 phase (CD44 + CD25 + ), DN3 phase (CD44 − CD25 + ), and DN4 phase (CD44 − CD25 − ). D Flow cytometry analysis is utilized to examine the inhibition of myeloid differentiation, as well as to assess the long-term T cell differentiation promoted by AA in vitro ( E ). F and G Statistical bar graphs are generated to represent the flow cytometry results of CD8 + and CD4 + T cells, with significance levels denoted as ns: not significant ( P > 0.05), * ( P < 0.05), and ** ( P < 0.01), ( n = 3 for each group)
