Figure Lengend Snippet: Effect of RBE-Exos on the adhesion of NK-92 cells. ( A ) Growth status of NK-92 cells. NK cells treated with RBE-Exos lost the normal cluster growing. ( B ) CD11a protein levels. ( C ) CD18 protein levels. ( D ) CD54 protein levels. Western blot showed that the protein levels of CD11a, CD18 and, CD54 were obviously decreased in NK-92 cells treated with RBE-Exos. ( E ) Relative transcriptional levels of CD11a , CD18 , CD54 and, CD2 in NK-92 cells. qRT-PCR displayed that RBE-Exos downregulated the transcriptional levels of CD11a , CD18 , CD54 , but not CD2 . Data were presented as mean ± SEM for three independent experiments. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, and *** P < 0.001.
