Figure Lengend Snippet: ATP production from oxidative phosphorylation is essential for monocyte and macrophage chemotaxis. ( A ) Schematic of the mammalian electron transport chain. BioGel-elicited myeloid cells were incubated with ( B ) oligomycin (1 µM), ( C ) Bay87-2243 (100 nM), ( D ) 3-nitropropionic (1 mM), ( E ) atovaquine (5 µM), or ( F ) antimycin A (0.5 µM) and a vehicle for 15 min before being added to the upper chamber (4 × 10 5 /well) of a CIM-16 plate and allowed to migrate for 6 h toward murine CCL2 (10 nM). The cell index was measured at 30 s intervals for 6 h and quantified through Max–Min or area under the curve (AUC) analysis. BMDMs were incubated with ( G ) oligomycin (1µM), ( H ) 2-deoxyglucose (50 mM), or ( I ) etomixir (3µM) or a vehicle for 15 min before being added to the upper chamber (1 × 10 5 /well) of a CIM-16 plate and allowed to migrate for 6 h toward murine C5a (10 nM). ( J ) Human monocytes isolated from buffy coats. A total of 4 × 10 5 /well were incubated with oligomycin (1 µM) or a vehicle for 15 min before being added to the upper chamber of a CIM-16 plate and allowed to migrate for 8 h toward human CCL2 (10 nM). Migration was measured with Max–Min analysis and area under the curve (AUC) analysis. Statistical analysis was conducted via one-way ANOVA with Dunnett’s multiple comparison post-test. * p = 0.05, ** p = 0.01.
