Since the publication, an error has been identified in Figure 6. The y axis in Figure 6a should have been Blood glucose (mg/dl) instead of Blood Glucose (g/dl).
Hyperglycemia results in reduced deletion of antigen-specific transgenic TCR thymocytes when challenged with antigen. C57BL/6 and C57BL/6–OT2 were treated with STZ (n=4) or saline (n=4). After 3 weeks, the mice were given 10 mg/kg ovalbumin i.p. The mice were euthanized 24 h later. Blood from cardiac puncture was evaluated for glucose concentration (a). Thymic single-cell suspensions were created from the above mice, surface stained for CD4 and CD8, and sub-populations (b–d) evaluated by FACS. Statistical difference determined by two-tailed unpaired Student's t-test (N.S., nonsignificant)
The correct figure is shown below.
The authors would like to apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
