Cobalt protoporphyrin (CoPP) treatment induces HO-1 high expression in BM-derived immature dendritic cells (imDCs). Untreated, CoPP-pretreated, or SnPP-pretreated imDCs and untreated or CoPP-pretreated mDCs were used in the experiments. (A) HO-1 expression was measured by Western blotting. Anti-β-actin was used as a loading control. The corresponding densitometric analyses are shown as bar graphs. The mean ± SD is reported (*P < 0.05, n = 3 per group). (B) Immunofluorescent staining of HO-1 was performed on each group of dendritic cells (DCs). Confocal images shown are representative of three experiments with similar results (original magnification, 600×; red, CD11c; green, HO-1; blue, nuclei). (C) Flow cytometry analysis of HO-1 was performed on each group of DCs. Gmean values are shown. Similar results were obtained in three independent experiments. (D) The phenotype (MHC-II, CD80, and CD86) of each group of DCs was analyzed by flow cytometry. The results shown here are representative of three independent experiments.
