Figure Lengend Snippet: Type III IFN receptor expression in human gingival keratinocytes. A : Detection of IL10R2 , IFNLR1 , and GAPDH mRNA in various keratinocytes and fibroblasts with (+) or without (-) cDNA by RT-PCR. M, marker. B : Quantitative analysis of IFNLR1 mRNA expression by real-time PCR in various keratinocytes and fibroblasts. Data represent the mean ± standard deviation (SD) of triplicate assays. C : Detection of cell surface IFN-λR1 by flow cytometry. The black line represents IFN-λR1, and the gray area shows the isotype control. A representative histogram from three independent experiments is shown. Values are the mean fluorescence intensity of IFN-λR1 expression and shown as a fold increase in IFN-λR1 expression from that with the control. D : HGK were treated with the indicated concentrations of IFN-λ1 for 30 min. Whole-cell lysates prepared from these cells were immunoblotted with anti-phospho-STAT1 (pSTAT1), anti-STAT1, or anti-GAPDH antibodies. A representative blot is shown. The bar graph shows the integrated signal intensities of the pSTAT1/STAT1 ratio. Data represent the mean ± SD of triplicate assays. * P < 0.05 and ** P < 0.01 versus untreated cells (0) (Dunnett’s multiple comparison test). E : Human gingival sections were stained with an isotype and anti-IFN-λR1 antibody. Sections were counterstained with hematoxylin. Representative images of 3 samples each are shown. The right image is a high-magnification image of the square area. A-D : Data show a representative of at least three independent experiments. OBA-9; an immortalized human gingival keratinocyte cell line. HGK; human primary gingival keratinocytes. HaCaT; an immortalized human skin keratinocyte cell line. HEK; human primary epidermal keratinocytes. HGF; human primary gingival fibroblasts. HFL-III; normal human lung fibroblasts.
