FIGURE 5.
Analysis of CD11c in the spleen macrophage subsets from parasite-infected mice. A, spleen macrophages, gated as shown in Fig. 3, were further gated for the expression of CD11c. The data shown are a representative of two independent experiments each performed using a group of three mice; cells from each mouse were separately analyzed. B, percentage (mean values ± S.D.) of CD11chi cells in each macrophage subset. Arrowheads indicate values below detection limit. Only red pulp macrophages (RPM) expressed high levels of CD11c. C, percentage (mean values ± S.D.) of each macrophage subset relative to the total spleen macrophages. MM, marginal zone macrophages; MMM, marginal zone metallophilic macrophages; TBM, tingible body macrophages.
