DTH response induced by mBSA. (A) DTH response was induced by mBSA in mBSA-sensitized β4GalT-I+/– (□; n = 8) and β4GalT-I–/– (▦; n = 8) mice. The increase in footpad thickness was calculated as described in “Materials and methods.” (B) Weigert hematoxylin and eosin staining of footpad sections. (i) PBS-injected β4GalT-I+/– mice. (ii) mBSA-injected β4GalT-I+/– mice. (iii) PBS-injected β4GalT-I–/– mice. (iv) mBSA-injected β4GalT-I–/– mice. Original magnification, × 100.
