Esophageal eosinophil level in an allergen-induced experimental eosinophil esophagitis model in miR-21^+/+ and miR-21^−/− mice.

<p>Eosinophil levels in the esophagus were determined by morphometric analysis following anti-MBP staining. N = 5–6 mice per group. Data are represented as mean ± S.E.M. Data are representative of 2 independent experiments.</p

Levels of apoptosis in the eosinophil progenitor culture from the miR-21^+/+ and miR-21^−/− mice.

<p>Levels of Annexin V and 7AAD staining during eosinophil differentiation culture as determined by FACS. The viable cells are AnnexinV⁻ 7AAD⁻. The early apoptotic cells are AnnexinV⁺ 7AAD⁻. The late apoptotic cells are AnnexinV⁺ 7AAD⁺. Data are representative of 3 independent experiments.</p
