Extended Data Fig. 1: Colonization with S. epidermidis induces a systemic B cell response.
From: Discovery and engineering of the antibody response to a prominent skin commensal
a, Colony-forming units (CFUs) per ear for the experiment shown in Fig. 1a. Two independent experiments, all mice shown. b, S. epidermidis LM088 was stained with serum from mice that were colonized (blue) or not (naive, grey) with the same strain for 6 weeks and analysed by flow cytometry. Representative of three independent experiments. Bacteria were gated on Syto9 positive cells. c, CFUs for the experiment shown in Fig. 1b. Two independent experiments, all mice shown. d, CFUs for experiment shown in Fig. 1g. Two independent experiments, all mice shown. e, Gating strategy for germinal centre B cells as shown in Fig. 1e.
