MiR-223 inhibits IL-18-induced NETs by suppressing calcium influx. (a) The levels of NETs in miR-223 over-expressing or miR-223 silencing cells after (a) IL-18 or (b) IL-1β treatment were detected and quantified. The calcium mobilization in miR-223 over-expressing cells after IL-18 treatment was detected by using Flou-4 staining and quantified with (c) confocal microscopy or (d) flow cytometry. All experiments were performed in triplicate, and data are presented as the mean ± SD. The scale bar in the IFA image represents 5 μm. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.005.
