Constitutive activation of STAT5 partially rescues Treg cell dysfunction. a, b Representative images of mice (a) and peripheral LNs and spleen (b) from 2-week-old Foxp3YFP-Cre/Y Ogtfl/Y and Foxp3YFP-Cre/YOgtfl/Y Rosa26Stat5b-CA/wt mice. c Survival curve of Foxp3YFP-Cre/Y Ogtfl/Y and Foxp3YFP-Cre/YOgtfl/Y Rosa26Stat5b-CA/wt mice (n = 6). d MFI of FOXP3 in FOXP3+CD25+ Treg cells in the LNs from 2-week-old Foxp3YFP-Cre/Y Ogtwt/Y, Foxp3YFP-Cre/Y Ogtfl/Y and Foxp3YFP-Cre/YOgtfl/Y Rosa26Stat5b-CA/wt mice, at least n = 3 each group. e Frequencies of FOXP3+CD25+ Treg cells among CD4+ T cells, at least n = 9 each group. f–g Frequencies of CD44hiCD62Llo (f) and CD44+KLRG1+ (g) eTreg cells among FOXP3+CD25+ Treg cells in the LNs from 2-week-old Foxp3YFP-Cre/Y Ogtwt/Y, Foxp3YFP-Cre/Y Ogtfl/Y and Foxp3YFP-Cre/YOgtfl/Y Rosa26Stat5b-CA/wt mice, at least n = 6 each group. h Histogram of FOXP3 expression in CD4+CD25+YFP+ Treg cells in the LNs from 2-week-old Foxp3YFP-Cre/Y Ogtwt/Y, Foxp3YFP-Cre/Y Ogtfl/Y and Foxp3YFP-Cre/YOgtfl/Y Rosa26Stat5b-CA/wt mice. i, j Absolute number of CD4+ (i) and CD8+ (j) T cells in the LNs, at least n = 3 each group. k, l Frequencies of CD44hiCD62Llo effector T cells in CD4+ (k) and CD8+ cells (l), at least n = 7 each group. m–o Frequencies of T-BET+ (m), GATA3+ (n) and RORγT+ (o) populations among CD4+FOXP3− cells in the LNs, at least n = 6 each group. p Frequencies of INFγ, IL-4 and IL-17A-producing CD4+FOXP3− cells from Foxp3YFP-Cre/Y Ogtfl/Y and Foxp3YFP-Cre/YOgtfl/Y Rosa26Stat5b-CA/wt mice, at least n = 3 each group. Data are shown as mean ± s.e.m. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001 by Kaplan-Meier Analysis (c), unpaired student’s t-test (p) and one-way ANOVA (d–g, i–o)
