Figure 1. DEP induced cell loss of MDMs from healthy volunteers.

Figure 1

MDMs were differentiated from purified monocytes obtained from healthy volunteers in the presence or absence of varied concentrations of DEP as described in the methods. A control well of MDMs were incubated overnight in 1 µM staurosporine (ST). MDMs were visualised by microscopy at the stated time points. A total of 4 randomly selected 10×magnification fields were visualised and cell counts were performed and denoted as total cell count. Data shown are mean±SEM of n = 6 for panels A and B and n = 4 for C and D, performed on different donors. Significant differences in A and B are denoted by *p<0.05, **p<0.01 and ***p<0.001, compared to MDMs differentiated in the absence of DEP, as measured by two way ANOVA and Bonferroni’s post test. To facilitate comparison the percentage cell loss was calculated compared to MDMs differentiated in the absence of DEP (C and D).
