Supplementary Figure 8: Loss of mKitL does not affect thymic architecture or morphology.
From: A dynamic niche provides Kit ligand in a stage-specific manner to the earliest thymocyte progenitors
Immunofluorescence analysis of thymic sections by using antibodies against CD31 (green), Ly51 (red), UEA-1 (blue) to assess the overall thymus architecture in 4–5 weeks old control (a–d) (KitlLEx7/LEx7) and FoxN1ΔEx7 mice (e–h). Scale bar: 300 μm. Immunofluorescence analysis of thymic sections by using antibodies against CD31 (green), Ly51 (red), UEA-1 (blue) in 4–5 weeks old, tamoxifen injected control (i–l) (KitlLEx7/LEx7), Tie2/PdgfbΔEx7 mice (m–p) and Tie2/Pdgfb/FoxN1ΔEx7 mice. Scale bar: 300 μm.
