Figure Legend Snippet: Figure 2: Te concentrations of complement pyrolysis products were found higher in pleural efusion than in plasma from TPE patients. (a) Complement pyrolysis products, including C3a, C3b, C3d, C5a, and opsonin receptors (CR1 and CR3) were detected in human tuberculosis pleural biopsy samples by immunohistochemistry. (Original magnifcation, ×200) (n 4). (b) Higher levels of complement pyrolysis products were found in pleural efusion than in plasma in TPE patients (n 20). Te concentrations of complement pyrolysis products in pleural fuid and plasma from TPE patients were measured by ELISA (n 20).
Techniques Used: Clinical Proteomics, Immunohistochemistry, Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay
Figure Legend Snippet: Figure 3: Monocyte migration was inhibited by antibodies that blocked CXCL12. (a) CXCL12 and CXCR4 staining by immunohisto- chemistry in human pleural biopsy (original magnifcation, ×200) (n 4). (b) Te concentration of CXCL12 in pleural fuid and plasma from TPE patients was measured by ELISA (n 20). (c) CXCL12 produced by PMCs was measured by PCR and ELISA after Mpt64 and anaphylatoxin activation. PMCs were incubated for 24 hours in control media or in media with Mpt64 (20 μg/ml) and with or without human C3a (100 nM) or C3aRA (100 nM) (n 4). (d) Coexpression of CXCL12-CXCR4 in PMCs and monocytes from TPE was detected by immunofuorescence (original magnifcation, ×400) (n 4). (e) Monocytes were seeded into the top chamber of a transwell system, and the supernatant from PMCs cultured with anti-CXCL12 antibody or PBS were placed in the bottom chamber. Te migratory index was calculated by dividing the number of monocytes that migrated in response to the supernatants from cultured PMCs by the number of monocytes that migrated in response to the control. ∗vs the MO-PBS group, ∗∗P < 0.01. #vs the MO-PMC group, ##P < 0.01 (n 4).
