hematopoietic system
• neutrophilia is quantitatively similar to that observed in Tg(Itgax-DTR/OVA/EGFP)1Garbi animals after diphtheria toxin treatment, although neutrophilia declined after 72 hours
• intrarenal polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) numbers are also similar
• at a dose of 40 ng DT/g body weight, neutrophilia persisted beyond 72 hours
|
• depletion of kidney dendritic cells is quantitatively similar to that observed in Tg(Itgax-DTR/OVA/EGFP)1Garbi animals after diphtheria toxin treatment

• in contrast to infected Tg(Itgax-DTR/OVA/EGFP)1Garbi animals, bacterial clearance (of uropathogenic E. coli) is improved 1 day after dendritic cell depletion
