Comparison of large SP TCR^hi thymocytes between WT and IL-15Rα KO mice.

<p>Total thymocytes were isolated from WT and IL-15Rα KO mice (n = 4) and stained for CD4, CD8, and TCR. (A) Cells were gated into 10 sub-regions (R1 to R10) on the basis of FSC. (B) The frequency of CD8SP TCR^hi thymocytes in each specified regions is displayed as percentages of total thymocytes (upper panels) or percentages of total SP TCR^hi thymocytes (lower panels). Data are means ± SD values. **<i>p</i><0.005 *<i>p</i><0.05 Single-classification ANOVA.
