Figure 7. Neutrophil LD catabolism is blocked by the ATGL inhibitor Atglistatin.
WT neutrophils collected from peritoneal lavages, 1 d post-thioglycolate injection were incubated in culture medium supplemented with 300 µM OA (18:1) (A) or AA (20:4) (B) for 6 h, after which, the medium was replaced by serum-free DMEM containing ATGL or ATGL/HSL inhibitors. After 4 and 6 h of starvation, LDs were quantified by flow cytometry. Fluorescence intensities are expressed as percentages of untreated control cells + sem (n = 6-7). *P < 0.05; **P ≤ 0.01; ***P ≤ 0.001.
