Fig 4. BMDCs stimulated with EphrinB2 upregulate EphB2 mRNA.

Naïve BMDCs were plated onto plate-bound Ephrin-B1-Fc fusion protein (A, B, C) or plate bound Ephrin-B2-Fc fusion protein (D, E, F). The transcription of EphB2 with and without the addition of recombinant interferon-γ (IFN-γ) was monitored by qPCR over 24 hours of culture (A, D). The efficiency of the Eph receptor ligation was monitored by assessing tyrosine phosphorylation on DCs by western blot (B, E) and the phosphorylation quantified using densitometry (C, F). All graphs represent the median value of pooled data from 3 independent DC preparations ±SD.
