Col(V) immune serum induction of complement-dependent cytotoxicity in airway epithelial cells. After growing to confluence, rat airway epithelial cells were incubated with HEL or col(V) immune serum in the presence or absence complement. After an incubation period, cells were stained with propidium iodide (PI) and analyzed by examined by flow cytometry to detect dead cells (propidium iodide-positive) by side scatter light (SS) analysis. Data are representative of two experiments with similar results.
