Pectin-induced effector T cell prevalence in intestinal and extra-intestinal lymphoid tissues. Flow cytometric quantitation of (a) IFNγ+, CD4+ (Th1); (b) IL-17+, CD4+ (Th17); (c) IL-2+, CD4+ ; and (d) TNFα+ , CD4+ ; T cells in pectin vs. high fat-diet fed EAU mice; (e) Example flow cytometry plots from which prevalence calculations were derived in (a)–(c); CLN: cervical lymph node; LPL: lamina propria lymphocytes; MLN: mesenteric lymph node; SPN: spleen. n = 4–27 animals/group; p < 0.05*, p < 0.01**, p < 0.001***; means are shown in the graph.
