Figure 5
Distribution of Tfh cells at the uterus and placenta.
The uterus and placenta were isolated separately from C57BL/6-mated BALB/c females, and the absolute numbers of CD4+CXCR5hiPD-1hi and CD4+CXCR5hiICOShi Tfh cells were determined by flow cytometry on E11.5 (a) and E18.5 (b). Each symbol reflects the data from a single mouse (n ≥ 4 mice per group) and the data are representative of at least two independent experiments. Statistical analysis was performed using paired Student’s t-test. No.: number; hi: high; ns: not significant; **p < 0.01.
