BEN+TBI compared to CY+TBI conditioning results in higher proportions of CD103+ cDC1s and robust accumulation of pre-cDC1s. Data shown is from the same mice as in Figure 2. (A) Representative flow cytometry gating of the splenic CD103+ cDC1 population on day 0, showing the FMO control. (B) Quantification of percent CD103+ cDC1s on days 0, +1 and +3 are shown from BEN+TBI or CY+TBI conditioned mice. Naïve mice were used as controls. (C) Total cell numbers of CD103+ cDC1 on day 0 are shown. Representative histograms, percent and MFI among cells positively expressing the activation markers.

The first mammalian caspase, caspase-1, was identified as the IL-13-converting enzyme involved in cleaving pre-IL-1ß to generate mature IL-13213,219 . The molecular mechanism of programmed cell death in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, mediated by Egl-1, Ced-9, Ced-3 and Ced-4, provides a prototypic example of apoptosis. Mammalian caspases (see the figure) were found to be the sequence and functional homologues of C. elegans Ced-3 Initiator caspases (inflammation, apoptosis and pyroptosis) Caspase-1 CARD S Caspase-4 Caspase-5 Caspase-11 Caspase-12 Downstream effector caspases (apoptosis) Caspase-3 Caspase-6 Caspase-7 in mediating apoptosis 21,222 . The genomes of mammals encode multiple caspases (the mouse genome encodes 11 caspases; the human genome encodes 13 caspases), which mediate cell death as well as inflammation". Caspases are classified based on the prodomain length (short or long) and sequence features (CARD or DED) as well as the functions (initiator caspase or downstrea
Intrinsic and extrinsic apoptosis. Extrinsic apoptosis (right) is mediated by the activation of plasma membrane-localized death receptors (such as TNFR1, Fas and TRAIL receptors DR4 and DR5) by their cognate ligands (such as TNF, FasL and TRAIL, respectively). Intrinsic apoptosis (left) can be activated by growth factor withdrawal, mitochondrial damage, DNA damage and chemotherapeutic drugs such as taxol. Activation of BH3-only members of the BCL-2 family, such as transcriptional induction of NOXA and PUMA by p53, post-translational modification of BAD and BIM, and cleavage of BID by caspase-8, induces mitochondrial damage by inactivating ВН3 only Anti-apoptotic Pro-apoptotic Apoptosis pro-survival BCL-2 family members, such as BCL-2, BCL-xL and MCL-1, and activating oligomerization of pro-death BCL-2 family members BAX and BAK. Mitochondrial damage leads to the release of cytochrome c and second mitochondria-derived activator of caspase (SMAC; also known as DIABLO) to promote the acti
