Efficiency of monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation is regulated by PPM1A. THP-1, THP-PPM1A, and THP-ΔPPM1A monocytes were treated with (A) PMA (100 ng/ml) or (B) Bryostatin (10 nM) to induce macrophage differentiation. Differentiation (adherence) was measured kinetically by the Real-time Cell Analysis (RTCA) system. The Cell Index (CI) is an arbitrary unit proportional to the strength of adherence. CI measurements were made every 30 min and represent the average of 3 independent wells.
