Immunodetection of iNOS in Day 1 Wound-Derived PMNs and Macrophages
Cells | % iNOS-positive cells | Relative fluorescent intensity |
---|---|---|
PMNs | 40–65 | 1.16 × 105 |
Macrophages | 70–85 | 1.12 × 106* |
Data are the range of the percentage of iNOS-positive PMNs or macrophages in six independent experiments and the relative immunofluorescent staining intensity in these cells determined as described in Materials and Methods.
*P = 0.0001 versus PMN (Mann-Whitney U test).
