Eosinophil numbers after adoptive transfer of CD3^IL-5+CD3⁺, CD4⁺or CD8⁺T cells to SCID-bg mice. Eosinophils in A) BM and B) blood of naïve SCID-bg mice 39 days after adoptive transfer of CD4⁺, CD8⁺ and CD3⁺ T cells enriched from naïve CD3^IL-5+ mice. C) Serum IL-5 in SCID-bg mice 39 days after adoptive transfer of CD4⁺, CD8⁺ and CD3⁺ T cells enriched from naïve CD3^IL-5+ mice. Data are shown as mean (+SEM) (n = 4–11). *P < 0.05 increased from control treated mice. **P < 0.01 increased from control treated mice and mice adoptively transferred with CD4⁺ cells from naïve CD3^IL-5+ mice. ^#P < 0.05 increased from control treated mice and mice adoptively transferred with CD4⁺ cells from naïve CD3^IL-5+ mice.
