<p><b>A.</b> Quantification of positive cells as a result of IF shows significantly decreased numbers of infiltrating macrophages (F4/80), neutrophils (Ly-6G) and dendritic cells (CD11c) in <i>Iqgap2</i><sup><i>-/-</i></sup> colons compared to WT following DSS treatment. The number of positive fluorescent cells was obtained by counting cells in six randomly selected fields per colon sample from WT and <i>Iqgap2</i><sup><i>-/-</i></sup> mice from the three groups: untreated, treated with DSS, and treated with DSS and allowed to recover for 7 days. <b>B.</b> Complete blood count (CBC) confirms reduced numbers of neutrophils, lymphocytes and monocytes in circulation in <i>Iqgap2</i><sup><i>-/-</i></sup> mice treated with DSS. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM. N = 3 per genotype/treatment (<b>A</b>), N = 5 per genotype/treatment (<b>B</b>), p-values indicating statistically significant differences are shown.</p
