Figure 2. 12/15-LO regulates the maturation process of DCs.
Flow cytometry–based analysis of (A) the expression of MHC class II molecules (MHCII) or (B) the expression of the indicated costimulatory molecules on WT (Alox15+/+) and Alox15–/– CD11c+ BM-DCs after LPS-induced maturation (100 ng LPS/ml). (C) Comparison of surface marker expression levels on CD11c+ BM-DCs by mean fluorescence intensity. (D) Effect of the 15-LO inhibitor Baicalein on the expression of the indicated surface molecules on human moDCs in the absence and presence of maturation (mat) cocktail. Data are representative of at least 3 independent experiments (n = 3). Error bars represent SEM. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.005, Student’s t test.
