Article Title: Cordycepin, lactoferrin, and Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharides protects against RSV via M2-like macrophage polarization
doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2025.1576069
Figure Lengend Snippet: CLS synergy amplifies M2-like polarization in RSV-infected alveolar macrophages beyond cordycepin alone. (A) Flow cytometry analysis of F4/80 + iNOS + M1 cells and F4/80 + CD206 + M2 cells. (B) RT-qPCR results of M1 marker mRNA (iNOS, IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α) and M2 marker mRNA (Arg-1, CD206, IL-10, and TGF-β) expression. Data are shown as mean ± SD; n=6 per group. * P <0.05, ** P <0.01, *** P <0.001, ns P >0.05 (one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post hoc ).
