Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 4. PMN Vascular Clustering during Candidemia Is Dependent on LTB4 In Vivo (A) PMN clustering (white) is compared among C57BL/6, C3/, and anti-C5aR mAb-treated mice following 1 hr of i.v. live C. albicans. Scale bar, 200 mm. (B and C) (B) Mean cluster area and (C) max skeletal length of clusters were compared. One-way ANOVA, Holm-Sidak’s multiple comparison. (D and E) Lung LTB4 levels of C57BL/6 and C3/ mice (D), two-way ANOVA, Holm-Sidak’s multiple comparison, and following anti-C5aR mAb-treated mice (E). (F) LTB4 in isolated pulmonary PMN with or without C. albicans infection (1 hr). Unpaired two-tailed t test. (G) A representative image of PMN clusters (white) in LTB4R/ mice following C. albicans (1 hr). Scale bar, 200 mm. (H and I) (H) Mean cluster area and (I) max. skeletal length of PMN clusters after C. albicans (1 hr). (J–L) 1 3 107 A488 zymosan or 1 3 107 A488 E. coli bioparticles (green) were injected i.v. during lung imaging. (J) Intravital images are shown at 60 min. Scale bar, 100 mm. Clusters were quantified as (K) max skeletal length and (L) mean cluster area. ANOVA was performed for panels with more than two groups, while unpaired two-tailed t test were used to compare two groups. n = at least 3 for each panel. Error bars represent mean ± SEM. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
