The timing and number of recruitment of total lymphocytes (Figure 3C), CD3+ cells (Figure 3D), and CD4+ cells (Figure 3E) were also similar in NFATp−/− and WT mice, with a slight increase in the number of CD8+ cells (Figure 3F) recruited to the lungs of WT mice relative to NFATp−/− mice (8.06×105±8.2×104 cells vs. 6.3×105±5.1×104, respectively, at 6 weeks post-MTb infection). Here, CD8A is linked to infection.
