Capture of an Ag-Specific T Cell by an Ag-Bearing DC Rapid DC Migration in the Subcapsular Space Bone-marrow derived DCs (either 5 µM CFSE, green) or (50 µM Cell Tracker Blue, blue) were injected into the footpad of a C57BL/6 mouse, followed 18 hours later by intravenous injection of freshly isolated polyclonal CD4+ T cells (5 µM SNARF, red) and CD8+ T cells (5 µM CFSE and 5 µM SNARF, yellow). The draining LN was removed 6 hours after injection Bone-marrow derived DCs (yellow) were pulsed with 1 µM Ova 4 peptide and 10 µM Ova for 1 hour at 37oC, then injected into the footpad of a C57BL/6 recipient. This was followed 6 hours later by i.v. co-injection of OT-I CD8+ T cells (5 µM CFSE, green) and OT-II CD4+ T cells (5 µM SNARF, red). Huang et al Immunity 2004
