We are interested in attempting to identifying Th1 and Th2 lymph node
lymphocytes of mice using intracellular cytokines by flow cytometry. Could you
provide details about how you isolated/purified lymph node T cells? Do you
have information about the proportions of cells with IFNg vs IL-4 and possibly
cells coproducing these cytokines? Has this work been published and if so
where?

Thank you for your help,
