MDM from healthy individuals and RA patients were induced with M-CSF over 6 days and differentiated with LPS/IFN-γ. Color scales are presented by fold change.
a. Gene expression profiling for 20 transcription factors in Mϕ treated with rhCCL18 (50 ng/mL, n=5) or vehicle (n=5) for 48h. Transcripts were quantified by RT-PCR.
b. Gene expression of 20 transcription factors in Mϕ generated from controls and RA patients. mRNA expression was measured by RT-PCR.
