Figure 3

Cell viability and phosphatidylserine externalization in neutrophils collected from the BAL (A,B) or separated from the blood (C,D). The dot plot abscissa represents the fluorescence emitted by the annexin V-FITC and the ordinate the fluorescence emitted by the 7-AAD. The Q4 region corresponds to cells with intact plasma membrane; in the Q3 region cells with phosphatidylserine externalized (early apoptotic cells) and in the Q2 region, late apoptotic and necrotic cells. BAL: Control (n = 3), HFD (n = 3) and GK (n = 6); Blood: Control (n = 6), HFD (n = 7) and GK (n = 11). Results are presented as mean ± S.E.M and n represents the number of animals used in each group. *p < 0.05 vs control; ***p < 0.001 vs control; #p < 0.05 vs HFD; ###p < 0.001 vs HFD.
