Figure Lengend Snippet: Detection of WSX and gp130 on M2 macrophages using FACS. The surface expression of WSX1 and gp130 on M2 macrophages was assessed by flow cytometry as described in the Materials and Methods. (A) The left and right panels show WSX1 and gp130 (CD130) staining, respectively. The staining pattern of isotype control antibodies is shown in gray line, and black indicates the protein of interest. The x-axis and y-axis show fluorescence intensity and cell counts, respectively. The percentages in the panels indicate the percentage of cells expressing WSX1 or gp130 in the samples. Data are representative of three independent experiments with similar outcomes. (B) Flow cytometric analysis of M2 macrophages showing the expression of WSX1 and gp130 (CD130) from one donor M2 macrophages. (C) FACS analysis for WSX1 and gp130 expression on M2 cells was performed using three independent donor cells. Results indicated means ± SE (n = 3). FACS, fluorescence-activated cell sorting.
