FIGURE 3. Rapid turnover of neutrophils, basophils and classical monocytes, and massive production of neutrophils in rhesus macaques during homeostasis.

FIGURE 3

(A) Turnover rates for neutrophils, basophils, and classical monocytes (k values as described in the Material and Methods section) were calculated from the best-fit curves to fit the mathematical model to the BrdU incorporation kinetics. (B) Half-life values for neutrophils, basophils, and classical monocytes were calculated as ln(2)/k. (C) Daily cell production numbers for neutrophils, basophils, and classical monocytes were calculated as absolute cell counts divided by the average circulating lifespans. Each data point represents results from one animal (n=11). All results were expressed as the mean ± SD for each cell population.
