Figure Lengend Snippet: IL-4-Induced M2 macrophage polarization promotes the progression of LPS. RAW264.7 cells were divided into two groups: control group, IL-4 group. (A) Flow cytometry was used to detect the expression level of CD206 on RAW264.7 cells in each group. (B) ELISA was performed to measure the secretion level of IL-10 in RAW264.7 cells from each group. (C) Western Blot was employed to determine the protein expression level of Arg-1 in RAW264.7 cells of each group. A Transwell co-culture system was utilized, which included two groups: control co-culture group (LPS cells co-cultured with untreated RAW264.7 cells). IL-4 co-culture group (LPS cells co-cultured with RAW264.7 cells pre-treated with IL-4). (D) EdU incorporation assay was used to detect the proliferative activity of SW872 cells and 94T778 cells in each group. (E-F) Transwell migration and invasion assays were performed to evaluate the migration and invasion abilities of SW872 cells and 94T778 cells in each group. Data are presented as the mean ± SD. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001. Experiments were repeated independently at least three times.
Article Snippet: Human liposarcoma cell lines SW872 and 94T778, as well as the murine macrophage cell line RAW264.7, were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, USA).
