Comparison of multiple stimuli on the neutrophil cell shape (FSC), pHi, MP, and granularity (SSC). a Influence of various stimuli on the neutrophil cell size after 10 min of incubation with the indicated molecule; n = 6–12; *p < 0.05 versus Ctrl (Wilcoxon signed-rank test). b Change in pHi after 5 min of stimulation with the indicated molecule; n = 6–12; *p < 0.05 versus Ctrl (Wilcoxon signed-rank test). c Effects of numerous stimuli on the resting MP after 1 min of stimulation; n = 6–12; *p < 0.05 versus Ctrl (Wilcoxon signed-rank test). d Change in neutrophil granularity approximated by the SSC after 20 min of stimulation n = 6–12; *p < 0.05 versus Ctrl (Wilcoxon signed-rank test). FSC, forward scatter area; pHi, intracellular pH; MP, membrane potential; SSC, side scatter area; Ctrl, control; fMLF, N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe; C5a, complement activation product 5a.
