Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Histology of the colonic lamina propria demonstrates significant villus distortion in WT CD45RB High T cell recipients relative to miR-106a −/− T cell recipients following adoptive transfer ( B ) Adoptive transfer of CD4 + CD45RB High T cells from miR-106a −/− mice resulted in significantly attenuated weight loss, a surrogate marker of intestinal inflammation, relative to WT controls. This result coincided with a significant reduction in IFN + CD4 + T cells ( C ) and IL-17 + CD4 + T cells ( D ) in the colonic lamina propria as well as a reduction in IL-10-producing CD4 + T cells ( E ). Results represent mean ± SEM for 4–7 mice per group from two or more independent studies. *P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001.
