Figure 1. Mature neutrophils in bone marrow are decreased in Clostridium perfringens-infected mice.

Figure 1

Mice were intramuscularly injected with 1 × 107 colony-forming units (CFUs) of C. perfringens Strain 13 (WT, n = 9), PLC-KO (KO, n = 9), or TGY medium as a control (uninfected, n = 9), bone marrow cells (BMCs) were isolated from mice after 24 hours, and flow cytometry analysis was performed using a Guava easyCyte. Representative flow cytometry profile (A), the absolute number of CD11b+Gr-1high mature neutrophils per femur (B), the absolute number of CD11b+Gr-1low immature neutrophils per femur (C), and bone marrow cellularity (D) are shown. Magnetically isolated Gr-1+ cells from BMCs were stained with Giemsa (E). One-way analysis of variance was employed to assess statistical significance.
