Table III. Fes kinase does not contribute to LTB4-induced chemotaxis.
Number of Chemotactic Cells |

---|---|---|
WKYMVm | LTB4 | |
Wild type | 48.9 ± 8.3 | 51.9 ± 6.1 |
FerDR/DR | 102.7 ± 15.1* | 63.1 ± 7.4 |
FesKR/KR/FerDR/DR | 159.0 ± 33.4* | 72.1 ± 9.6 |
Neutrophil chemotaxis was determined in vitro using the under-agarose gel assay. Chemotaxis was determined in response to WKYMVm (1 μM) or LTB4 (1 μM) using bone marrow–derived neutrophils from wild-type, Fer mutant (FerDR/DR), or Fps/Fer double-mutant mice (FesKR/KR/FerDR/DR). Data are expressed as mean ± SEM, 23–24 plates (n = 3 mice).
p < 0.05 significantly different from WT neutrophils.
