Extended Data Fig. 2

a, Diagram of loxP sequence insertion sites in Gabbr1flox/flox mice and validation by DNA sequencing. b–d, FACS analysis of ILC3 Gabbr1 expression (b; CD3CD19CD127+CD45+RORγt+gated), ILC1s (c; CD3CD19CD45+CD127+gated) and ILC2s (d; CD3CD19CD127+CD90+gated) in small intestines isolated from Rorc-CreGabbr1fl/fl (hereafter Gabbr1WT) and Rorc-Cre+Gabbr1fl/fl (hereafter Gabbr1ΔRorc) mice. n = 5 per group. e, Calculation of ILC numbers as in c, d. n = 5 per group. f, g, Immunofluorescent microscopy of ILC3s in the isolated lymphoid follicles (f) and cryptopatches (g) in small intestines from Gabbr1WT and Gabbr1ΔRorc mice. Scale bar, 100μm. n = 3 times of experiments were repeated independently with similar results. h, i, H&E staining assay (h) and number statistical analysis (i) of small intestinal lymphoid tissues (SILTs) from Gabbr1WT and Gabbr1ΔRorc mice. n = 5 per group. j, k, Flow cytometry assay of the number of ILC3 subsets (CD3CD19CD45lo gated) in small intestine (j) and colon (k) from Gabbr1WTRag1−/−and Gabbr1ΔRorcRag1−/−mice. n = 5 per group. l-n, FACS analysis of CLPs (l), CHILPs (m) and ILCPs (n) in bone marrow cells from Gabbr1WT and Gabbr1ΔRorc mice. n = 5 per group. o, Cell number statistical analysis of progenitor cells as indicated in l-n. n = 5 per group. ns, not significant. Data were analyzed by an unpaired two-side Student’s t-test and shown as means ± SD. Data are representative of at least independent experiments.
