FLT3L treatment prevents mice dying from by acute GVHD. (A-E) (C57BL/6 × DBA/2)F1 mice were treated with FLT3L (20 μg intraperitonal injection every second day from days −7 to 0) or left untreated. At day 0, mice were injected with 50 × 106 pooled lymph node/spleen from C57BL/6 mice. (F-J) (C57BL/6 × DBA/2)F1 mice were treated with FLT3L (20 μg intraperitoneal injection every second day from days −7 to 7) or left untreated. At day 0, mice were irradiated (600 rad) and injected with 50 × 106 pooled lymph node/spleen plus 8 × 106 bone marrow cells from C57BL/6. (B,G) Survival curves of control and treated mice. (C,H) Percentages of C57BL/6 CD4 and CD8 T cells in the spleen of control or treated mice at day 7. (D,I) Percentage of Foxp3+ cells within host or donor CD4 T cells in the spleen of control or treated mice at day 7. (E,J) Percentage of CD11chighMHCIIhigh cells within host or donor cells in the spleen of control or treated mice at day 7.
