Jak3KI/KICTCL-like disorder is transplantable and is characterized by heterogeneous cell populations. (A) Kinetics of the percentage of the CD4+ and CD8+ populations in the peripheral blood of sublethally irradiated recipients transplanted with Jak3KI/KI or Ts1Rhr-Jak3KI/KI splenic cells. Data are shown as the mean ± SEM (3 to 4 mice per group). P values are shown (Student t test). (B) Representative FACS plots of the CD4 and CD8 splenic cells gated on CD3+Gr1+ of recipient animals transplanted with Jak3KI/KI and Ts1Rhr-Jak3KI/KI cells. (C) Bar graphs showing the proportion of the different T cell populations in recipient animals (Gated on CD3+Gr1+). Mean ± SEM and P values are indicated (5 mice per group). (D) FACS plot showing the percentage of CD4+Gr1+ and CD8+Gr1+ in the peripheral blood at 20 weeks of recipient animals transplanted with sorted CD4+ or CD8+ donors. (E) Proportion of CD4+ and CD8+ in the peripheral blood of sublethally irradiated recipients transplanted with CD4+ or CD8+ sorted cells (n = 5 to 9 mice per group). The presence of the Jak3KI/KI allele was verified by genotyping CD4+Gr1–, CD4+Gr1+, CD8+Gr1–, and CD8+Gr1+ sorted cell populations from peripheral blood.
