Figure Lengend Snippet: a Pigs treated with SWNT-SHP1i do not develop anemia or thrombocytopenia, with no significant difference in CBC lab values (WBC, neutrophils, lymphocyte, monocyte) between the SWNT and SWNT-SHP1i treated cohorts at each timepoint. Data are presented as mean values ± SEM. SWNT and SWNT-SHP1i cohort per group n = 7 (Baseline), n = 7 (Month 1), n = 6 (Month 2), n = 5 (Month 3) from independent biological samples. b SWNT-SHP1i was not significantly associated with derangements in lipid levels compared to SWNT controls. Data are presented as mean values ± SEM. SWNT cohort n = 8 (Baseline), n = 7 (Month 1), n = 7 (Month 2), n = 6 (Month 3); SWNT-SHP1i cohort n = 7 (Baseline), n = 8 (Month 1), n = 7 (Month 2), n = 7 (Month 3) from independent biological samples. c , d SWNT-SHP1i was not associated with derangements in c renal function, or d hepatic function compared to SWNT treated controls. Data are presented as mean values ± SEM. SWNT cohort n = 8 (Baseline), n = 7 (Month 1), n = 7 (Month 2), n = 6 (Month 3); SWNT-SHP1i cohort n = 7 (Baseline), n = 7 (Month 1), n = 6 (Month 2), n = 6 (Month 3) from independent biological samples. e There was no significant difference in body weight between SWNT and SWNT-SHP1i treated pigs. Data are presented as mean values ± SEM. SWNT cohort n = 8 (Weeks 1–3), n = 7 (Weeks 4–8), n = 6 (Weeks 9–11), n = 3 (Week 12); SWNT-SHP1i cohort n = 7 (Weeks 1–4), n = 6 (Weeks 5–11), n = 4 (Week 12) from independent biological samples.

Article Snippet: SWNTs were then loaded with a small molecule inhibitor of SHP-1 (SHP1i) (Millipore Corp., NSC-87877), which is the intracellular anti-phagocytic effector phosphatase downstream of CD47’s receptor, SIRP-α .
