Figure 2. ICOS-/- donor T cells cause significantly less GVHD mortality and morbidity in allo-HSCT recipients. (A-C) Parent→F1 model. C3FeB6F1 mice were lethally irradiated (1300 cGy split) and received transplants with TCD allo-HSCs from WT B6 mice (5 × 106) and 1 × 106 WT or ICOS-/- B6 T cells. (D-F) MHC class I and II disparate model. BALB/c recipients were lethally irradiated (900 cGy split) and received transplants with TCD allo-HSCs from WT B6 mouse bone marrow (5 × 106) and splenic WT or ICOS-/- B6 T cells (0.5 × 106). Panels A and D represent survival curves; B and E, weight loss curves; and C and F, clinical GVHD scores. BM-only control groups (n = 0 to 4) and T-cell recipient groups (n = 16 to 20) are derived from 2 combined experiments. Allo-HSC control group (\batchmode \documentclass[fleqn,10pt,legalpaper]{article} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amsmath} \pagestyle{empty} \begin{document} \({\odot}\) \end{document}), WT allo-HSCs + WT T-cell recipients (▪), and WT allo-HSCs + ICOS-/- T-cell recipients (▵). Statistical analyses shown in all graphics represent recipients of WT versus ICOS-/- T-cell recipients.
