Davis, Chandra Mohan, Harris Perlman  Immunity  Volume 28, Issue 2, Pages 206-217 (February 2008) DOI: 10.1016/j.immuni.2007.12.015 Copyright © 2008 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Apoptosis-Related Gene Expression Profiles of SLE and Healthy Control PBMC Subsets CFLAR, MCL1, and BCL2A1 gene expression in sorted CD33+ myeloid cells (A) and CD4+ T cell (B) and CD19+ B cell (C) subsets from healthy controls (HC) and SLE patients. Red, black, and green indicate that the gene expression is greater than, equal to, or less than the mean amount of expression of all samples. Myxovirus resistance-1 (MX1) has been shown previously to correlate with SLE disease activity (Bennett et al., 2003).

The values represent the mean ± SEM and were compared by student's t test. (B) Abnormal splenic architecture in Bcl2l11−/−Faslpr/lpr mice. A representative photomicrograph of spleens isolated from female WT, Bcl2l11−/−, Faslpr/lpr, and Bcl2l11−/−Faslpr/lpr mice and stained with hematoxylin and eosin is shown. Scale bars represent 100 μm. (C) Increased lymph node cellularity in Bcl2l11−/−Faslpr/lpr mice. Single lymph nodes were isolated from WT (n = 2), Bcl2l11−/− (n = 4), Faslpr/lpr (n = 4), and Bcl2l11−/−Faslpr/lpr mice (n = 5) and counted by trypan blue exclusion so that the total cell number could be obtained. The values represent the mean ± SEM and were compared by student's t test. ∗ indicates p < 0.0007 as compared to the WT, † indicates p < 0.0007 as compared to Bcl2l11−/−, and ‡ indicates p < 0.005 as compared to Faslpr/lpr.

Figure 6 Bcl2l11−/−Faslpr/lpr Mice Display Evidence of Increased Circulating and Deposited Autoantibodies, Resulting in Renal Damage (A) Serum proteome array reveals additional autoantibodies. Serum were isolated from WT (n = 4), Bcl2l11−/− (n = 4), Faslpr/lpr (n = 4), and Bcl2l11−/−Faslpr/lpr (n = 4) mice. Proteome arrays were performed as previously described (Li et al., 2005; Li et al., 2007). The data were compared by one-way ANOVA for IgM (Cy3) or IgG (Cy5) as described in the Experimental Procedures. (B) Bcl2l11−/−Faslpr/lpr mice display more severe deposition of immune complexes on the glomeruli. Representative photomicrographs of immune-complex deposition in kidneys are shown. Kidneys were isolated from 16- to 20-week-old WT (n = 8), Bcl2l11−/− (n = 20), Faslpr/lpr (n = 17), and Bcl2l11−/−Faslpr/lpr (n = 27) mice and frozen in OCT media. Sections were cut and slides were stained with conjugated anti-IgG antibody as described in the Experimental Procedures.

Representative photomicrographs of kidneys isolated WT (n = 8), Bcl2l11−/− (n = 20), Faslpr/lpr (n = 17), and Bcl2l11−/−Faslpr/lpr (n = 27) mice. All images were taken at 400× total magnification. Scale bars represent 50 μm. (E) Increased renal biopsy index scores in Bcl2l11−/−Faslpr/lpr mice. Kidneys were isolated and treated as described above and scored by a pathologist blinded to the study as described in Materials and Methods. The Biopsy Index is an average derived by dividing the sum of the scores by the number of criteria, as previously described (Hill et al., 2000). All values represent the mean ± SEM and were compared by student's t test. ∗ indicates p < 0.05 as compared to the WT, † indicates p < 0.05 as compared to Bcl2l11−/−, and ‡ indicates p < 0.05 as compared to Faslpr/lpr.

Kidneys isolated from WT, Bcl2l11−/−, Faslpr/lpr, and Bcl2l11−/−Faslpr/lpr mice were stained with anti-F4/80 antibody (clone: BM8, Caltag) as described in the Experimental Procedures. Scale bars represent 50 μm. (F) Flow cytometry reveals an increase in kidney macrophage numbers. Cells were isolated from kidneys and stained as described above. The values represent the mean ± SEM and were compared by student's t test. ∗ indicates p < 0.05 as compared to the WT, † indicates p < 0.05 as compared to Bcl2l11−/−, and ‡ indicates p < 0.05 as compared to Faslpr/lpr mice.
