Gene expression and translation of dectin-1 signaling proteins. a Illustration of selected signaling molecules downstream of dectin-1; b Polysome profiles and c quantification of signalosome genes (qPCR) in monosome, disome, and light and heavy polysome fractions (monocytes). Data are from 4 subjects per age group (boxes and whiskers; RQ = relative quantification); d Quantification of signalosome genes (qPCR) in total RNA fractions (4 to 5 subjects/age group; mean ± SD); e Surface expression of dectin-1 (flow cytometry, mononuclear cells, gated on CD14-expressing cells; data pooled from 10 to 23 subjects per age group; boxes and whiskers); f Representative (cropped) Western blot of MALT1 and Bcl10 protein expression in monocytes after 0 to 60 min LPS stimulation. Representative blot is from a 29 weeks gestation sample. Images cropped from same blot probes with each antibody; cumulative quantification of 4 independent Western blot experiments for g MALT1 and h Bcl10 (mean ± SD)
