Fig. 2. Tumor-bearing brain shows distinct population of infiltrating immune cells.

Fig. 2

a Concatenated FlowSOM analysis of naïve brain vs. tumor-bearing brain showing seven metaclusters (representative plot from two independent experiments with n = 3 mice/group). b Expression of CD11b, CD45 and CX3CR1 in viSNE clusters of naïve vs. tumor-bearing brain. c Heatmap showing expression profile of metaclusters in concatenated samples. d Percent population in each metacluster of naïve vs. tumor-bearing brain. Data represented as average ± SE for n = 3 mice/group. Data representative of two independent experiments. Two-sided Student’s t test with Holm–Sidak corrections for multiple comparisons was applied. *p ≤ 0.05; **p ≤ 0.005; ***p ≤ 0.0007. e Representative flow plot of resting and activated microglia in naïve vs. tumor-bearing brain. Microglia was gated as CD11b low/CD45 low which was further gated for MHC-II high/CX3CR1 high (activated microglia) and MHC-II low/CX3CR1 high (resting microglia).
