Figure Lengend Snippet: representative flow cytometry histogram of DC-SIGN receptor analysis in RAJI cells in different time points of cell culture. Electronic gates R4 represents total RAJI transfected with DC-SIGN cells expressing DC-SIGN, R5 represents RAJI DC-SIGN POS cells expressing low amount of DC-SIGN (DC-SIGN Low ), and R6 represents RAJI DC-SIGN POS cells expressing high amount of DC-SIGN (DC-SIGN Hi ).
Article Snippet: RAJI cells and Leishmania culture - RAJI-transfected cells expressing DC-SIGN (DC-SIGN POS ) and RAJI-mock transfected (DC-SIGN NEG ) cells (Sigma Chemical Company, Saint Louis, USA) were maintained in culture in RPMI-1640 medium supplemented, with 2 mM L-glutamine (Gibco BRL, Gaithersburg, Germany), 100 U/mL penicillin (Sigma, USA), 100 µg/mL streptomycin (Sigma, USA) and 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Gibco BRL, Germany) (complete medium), at 37ºC in a humidified CO 2 incubator.
