C-D. Frequencies and total numbers (mean +SEM) of MOG-specific GM-CSF+ Th17 cells isolated from the spleen (C) and dLN (D).Cells (A-D) were isolated at day 9 after immunization and restimulated in the presence of MOG for 6 h. Data consist of n=5 WT PBS, n=4 WT PTx, n=4 IL-1R1-/- PBS, n=4 IL-1R1-/- PTx, MOG/CFA immunized mice. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, N.S. - not significant; two-tailed unpaired t-test. Experiments were performed at least twice with similar results.
