BMDM and pMACs were polarized as described in Methods. Cell surface expression was quantified as Mean Fluorescent Intensity by flow cytometry as in Figure 3 and the statistical significance based on cell type (irrespective of polarization), polarization (irrespective of cell type), or cell type and polarization (interaction effect) determined. Specifically, the deviation from the mean, induced by IFN-γ, IL4/IL13, or left untreated (NT) was calculated for each animal (and graphed in Figure 7). Statistical significance was determined by 2-way ANOVA, thus removing the animal-to-animal variability and considering only the within-animal responses. p-values are presented. Statistically significant differences are indicated in bold text. n = BMDM and pMACs from 7 animals.
