Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 6 PKC signals downstream upon TsSP-MR interaction. Quantification of flow cytometry analysis of the expression levels of (a) CCR2, (b) LFA-1 avidity and (c) LFA-1 affinity on human monocytes. These cells were cultured in the presence or absence of TsSP (40 μg/ml, 16 h), the PKC inhibitor Bisindolylmaleimide I (GF109203, 2 μM) and blocking antibodies for the MR or its isotype control (both 10 μg/ml). (b) and (c) are expressed as the percentage of avidity/affinity compared to total LFA-1. Cell supernatants were used to determine the levels of (d) TNF-α and (e) IL-10 secretion by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay analysis. f PKC activation was determined by Western Blotting using phosphoPKC antibodies compared to GAPDH expression and images were subsequently quantified using ImageJ. Experiments were performed in triplicate using cells derived from 4 different human donors and the results are presented as the mean (a-c); the mean percentage (d, e) or the mean PKC phosphorylation +/−SEM. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 as determined by ANOVA and Students t test

Article Snippet: The following primary antibodies (in TSM/0,05 % Tween/5 % BSA) were used: PhosphoPKC (Cell signaling, Beverly, MA, USA, #9371S) and GAPDH (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Heidelberg, Germany, #sc-32233) as a loading control.
