Fig. (3). Anaphylatoxin C5a increases neutrophil CD11b expression.
Mouse whole blood was incubated with anaphylatoxins C3a (A) and C5a (B) to determine the dose response of neutrophil CD11b expression. Negative (PBS) and positive controls (LPS [10 µg/0.1ml]) were included. Statistical significance versus PBS incubation was denoted at p < 0.05 (*) and p < 0.001 (***) (n = 3 for each incubation; data are mean TFI ± SEM).
