SCID mice received 4 × 105 CD45RBhigh cells alone or in combination with other subpopulations as indicated. 8 wk after transfer, mice were killed and tissues were taken for histological examination. Data are pooled from two independent experiments. CD45RBhigh versus CD45RBhigh plus CD25+CD45RBlow: P < 0.001; CD45RBhigh versus CD45RBhigh plus CD25CD45RBlow: not significant.
