Enzyme activity in the mouse immune cells. Bars show specific CathA activity against benzyloxycarbonyl-Phe-Leu (A) and specific sialidase activity against the synthetic substrate, 4MU-NeuAc (B) in total lysates of blood-derived and spleen-derived monocytes (MC) and macrophages (MØ) as well as of the splenocyte-derived immature (IDC) and mature (MDC) dendritic cells. Values represent the means ± S. D. of three independent experiments. PBMC, peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
