Fig. 2. Alcohol impairs NK cell migratory capacity and bactericidal activity.

Fig. 2

Mouse primary NK cells were collected from alcohol-fed and treated mice and added to the apical side of a Transwell with migration assessed in response to (A) media alone, and (B) media with CCL2/CXCL12 following 5 h of incubation. C Primary NK cells were harvested from control and binge-on-chronic alcohol-fed mice with and without treatment. NK cells were then incubated with K. pneumoniae for 3 h. and bacterial viability was determined by serial dilution. p-values as determined by one‐way ANOVA with Sidak’s multiple comparisons are shown in the figure. N = 3 wells of primary NK cells/group (6 mice/group, NK cells per 2 mice were pooled).
