Liver kinase B1 (LKB1) deficiency leads to a reduced number of alveolar macrophages (AMs) in the lung. A, Macrophage (CD45+, MerTK+, and CD64+) populations in lung suspensions of LysM-cre × Stk11fl/fl and littermate control (Stk11fl/fl) mice: “classic” AMs (cAMs) (SiglecFhigh and CD11bneg), “nonclassic” AMs (ncAMs) (SiglecFlow and CD11bpos), and interstitial macrophages (IMs) (SiglecFneg and CD11bhigh). B–D, Numbers of cAMs, ncAMs, and IMs (B), percentage of dead cells (C), and percentage Ki-67–positive cells (D) in lung suspensions of LysM-cre × Stk11fl/fl mice and littermate controls (Stk11fl/fl). Data are shown as bar graphs representing mean with standard error of the mean for 5 mice per group. LysM-cre × Stk11fl/fl mice were compared with littermate control (Stk11fl/fl) mice using Student t tests. *P < .05; †P < .01; ‡P < .001.
