Fig. 9From: Microbiome diversity declines while distinct expansions of Th17, iNKT, and dendritic cell subpopulations emerge after anastomosis surgeryImmune cell populations correlate to Firmicutes with distinct patterns based on surgical segments. Correlation graphs of A iNKT (TCRβ+ CD1dtet+) IL-22+ cells, B iNKT IL-10+ (significant r value of 0.8186 in segment B and 0.719 for Segment C), C CD11bhi CD103mid DCs (CD45+ IA-IE+ CD110+), D Th17 (TCRβhi CD4+ IL-17A+ IL17F+) and E Treg (TCRβ+ CD4+ FoxP3+) (significant r value of 0.0428 for segment C) versus Firmicutes within surgical segments. Pearson correlation coefficient (r) are found in Additional file 9: Table S1Back to article page
