Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 2. Tumor conditioning induces macrophage CD163 and IL-10 gene expression. Tumor-conditioned human monocyte-derived macrophages (M(A2780)) were generated and their gene expression was compared to control macrophages by RT-qPCR. A-F: Presents gene expression of polarization markers (CD163, IL-10, and TNF-α) and phagocytosis checkpoints (SIRPα, LILRB1, and Siglec-10) in tumor-associated macrophages compared to controls. Statistics: comparisons were made against controls using paired t-tests and a significance level of p = 0.05. When indicated by a logarithmic y-axis, comparisons were made on log-transformed data. Data are presented as individual data points with mean ± SD. N = 4.

Article Snippet: The plates were read at 450/ 620 nm and a standard curve ranging from 0.625 to 8 μg/L was prepared using recombinant human LILRB1 (R&D systems, 8989-T2). sCD206 (samples diluted 1:5) [34], and sSIRPα (samples diluted 1:10) [35] were measured as previously reported in detail.

Techniques: Gene Expression, Derivative Assay, Generated, Control, Quantitative RT-PCR, Transformation Assay

Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 3. Tumor cell conditioning induces CD163, CD206, CD80 and LILRB1 on the membrane protein level. Tumor-conditioned human monocyte-derived macrophages (M(A2780)) were generated and their membrane protein expression compared to control macrophages by flow cytometry. The gating strategy is presented in Supplementary fig. 1. A-G: Presents median fluorescence intensities (MFI) of polarization markers (CD163, CD206, and CD80) and MFI values and percent macrophages positive for phagocytosis checkpoints (LILRB1, and Siglec-10). Statistics: comparisons were made against controls using paired t-tests and a significance level of p = 0.05. When indicated by a logarithmic y-axis, comparisons were made on log-transformed data. Data are presented as individual data points with mean ± SD. N = 9.
