(A) Weight loss curves of recipients transferred with 5 × 10 CD4CD45RB T cells isolated from either WT C57BL/6 mice (open squares) or mice (filled squares)

The graph shows the average weight loss as a percentage of the initial weight of four mice in each group, and they are representative of four independent experiments. (B) H&E staining of proximal and distal colon of mice transferred with WT or T cells. The histological scores of the representative sections shown are indicated (bottom right of each panel). GC, goblet cells. (C) Average scores of the proximal and distal colon sections were evaluated 12 wk after the transfer of T cells. Sections of the large intestine isolated from different recipients were microscopically analyzed as described in Materials and methods. Each square represents a single mouse (eight per group). *, P < 0.05.<p><b>Copyright information:</b></p><p>Taken from "A crucial role for HVEM and BTLA in preventing intestinal inflammation"</p><p></p><p>The Journal of Experimental Medicine 2008;205(6):1463-1476.</p><p>Published online 9 Jun 2008</p><p>PMCID:PMC2413041.</p><p>
