(A) Representative images showing CD36, TRPV4, and nuclei (DAPI) in WT and Trpv4−/− BMDMs after treatment with IL-4 + GM-CSF or untreated. Cells were also stained with isotype control IgGs. Scale bars, 20 μm. n = 3 independent experiments and 10 cells per condition. (B) Representative log plot of flow cytometric data showing cell surface abundance of CD36 in WT and Trpv4−/− BMDMs and TRPV4 in WT BMDMs after incubation with IL-4 + GM-CSF for 24 hours. (C) Quantification of data from (B). n = 3 independent experiments and 20,000 cells per condition; Student’s t test. (D) Immunoblotting and quantification of the BMDM receptors CD36, ECAD1, SRA-1, TLR4, and CD47 at 24 and 48 hours after treatment of WT and Trpv4−/− BMDMs with IL-4 + GM-CSF. GAPDH is a loading control. n = 3 biological replicates. Two-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni test. A.U., arbitrary units.
