Figure Lengend Snippet: PAR-2 signalling reduces sensitivity to IFNγ by enhancing SOCS3 expression. (A). MCSF-derived BMM cultured for 3 hours with 100 µM PAR-2 agonist or maintained in MCSF (control) prior to the addition of escalating concentrations of IFNγ. Cells were then analysed by intracellular flow cytometry for iNOS expression. Data shows results from 3 (PAR-2) and 5 (control) separate groups of experiments. (B). Representative flow cytometry profiles of experiment described in Fig1A. (C). MCSF-derived BMM incubated with increasing concentrations of IFNγ (control), or primed beforehand with thrombin for 24 hours (Thrombin) or with thrombin and 100 µM PAR-2 agonist prior to IFNγ stimulation.

Figure Lengend Snippet: PAR-2 signalling delivers a protective phenotype in oxazolone induced delated type hypersensitivity. (A). Schematic illustrating the experimental protocol. C57BL/6 (WT) mice were sensitised on the abdomen with oxazolone on day 0 and re-challenged on day 5 on one of the ears with oxazolone, and on the other ear with vehicle alone. Immediately prior to re-challenge, mice received either IP saline (n= 8) or 10microM/g PAR-2 agonist (n= 7). 24 and 48 hours following re-challenge (days 6 and 7), ear swelling was quantified using a micrometer. Data are presented as Δ mean ear thickness (swelling of oxazolone-treated ear minus that of vehicle treated ear). At least 5 measurements were taken per ear and averaged. (B, C).

Figure Lengend Snippet: PTL0GC-1 provides a protective benefit in the outcome of type IV hypersensitivity greater than PTL060. (A) Schematic illustrating the experimental protocol. C57BL/6 (WT) mice were sensitised on the abdomen with oxazolone on day 0 and re-challenged on day 5 on one of the ears with oxazolone, and on the other ear with vehicle alone. On day 3 and 5 mice received either IV saline (n=5), or 10microM/g IV PTL060 (n=7) or equimolar PTL0GC-1 (n=5) or 3-MP (n=5). 3 hours after injection on day 5 mice were then re-challenged with oxazolone (on the right) or vehicle alone (on the left). (B) Results are expressed as change in mean ear thickness between treated (right ear) and untreated (left ear) at 24 hours. At least 5 measurements were taken per ear and the results averaged. (C–L) Immunofluorescence of frozen sections through oxazolone-treated ears (groups as described in Fig 6A).
