Increase in CD103⁺ T cells in S and PLN in mice receiving the STD diet.

<p>(<b>A</b>) Bars represent the proportion of CD103⁺ cells, gated on 100% CD3⁺ cells. There was an increased proportion of CD103 expression in S and PLN in BALB/c mice receiving the STD diet. (<b>B</b>) Representative dot plot from PLN showing the differences in CD103⁺ T cells between the two diets. (<b>C</b>) Bars showing the percentages of CD103⁺ cells gated on 100% CD3⁺CD4⁺ lymphocytes. (<b>D</b>) Representative dot plots of CD4⁺CD103⁺ T cells from isolated PLN. Barplots are mean values ± SEM of two independent experiments with 6 mice in each group. Spleen (S); inguinal lymph nodes (ILN); mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN); Peyer's patches (PP) and pancreatic lymph nodes (PLN). Black bars: STD diet. Grey bars: GF diet. * P<0.05. ** P<0.01.
