Markov chain models for tissue regulatory T cell cellular kinetics and dwell times

CD45.1 mice were parabiosed to CD45.2 mice. Pairs of parabiotic animals were sacrificed and perfused at weeks 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12 for tissue analysis by flow cytometry (n=11,12,18,16,14). Markov chains were built to model the changes in cell state and tissue exchange, with each tissue built using a model containing the tissue, blood, and combined other tissues.
