Memory B-cell response is reduced in SWAP-70−/− mice. Mice were immunized with NP-KLH emulsified in CFA, rested for 85 days, and reimmunized with NP-KLH for 5 days. (A) Flow cytometry of NP+ B cells in spleen. (B) Percentage of CD138+B220low, B220high, and B220−CD138+ cells among the NP+ cells in the spleen. (C) Flow cytometry of NP+ B cells in BM. (D) Percentage of CD138+B220low, B220high, and B220− cells among the NP+ cells in the BM. Data represent the mean percentage of cells in 3 independent experiments. (E) Flow cytometry of total plasma cells CD138+B220low in the spleen. Numbers indicate the percentage among total lymphocytes. (F) NP-specific total (left panel) and high-affinity (right panel) anti-IgG1 titers were determined by ELISA with NP12-BSA and NP3-BSA as capture antigen. Black and white circles represent individual mouse for wt and SWAP-70−/− respectively. Black and gray bars represent the mean average for wt and SWAP-70−/−, respectively. Values are expressed as arbitrary optical-density units at 405 nm. Fold increase in NP-IgG1 titers between no boost and after boost (low panels). (G) ELISPOT analysis of total (left panel) and high-affinity (right panel) IgG1 secretion by splenocytes from wt and SWAP-70−/− mice. Data represent the mean number of spots.
