Figure Lengend Snippet: Phenotypic characterization of monocyte-derived macrophages and comparative analysis of in vitro macrophage-mediated phagocytosis following CD47 (B6-H12) antibody treatment. ( A ) CD14-positive monocytes are isolated and cultured in a macrophage medium, followed by activation with recombinant human M-CSF for 6 d. Single cells are stained and analyzed using the BD FACSVerse System. ( B , C ) KHOS/NP cells are labeled with CellTrace™ CFSE dye (KHOS-CFSE) and incubated with 10 μg/mL anti-CD47 antibody or IgG ISO-type antibody for 30 min at 37 °C. KHOS/NP-CFSE cells are co-cultured with differentiated macrophages for 2 h. The percentage of macrophage-mediated phagocytosis (CD14-high, CellTrace-high, and CD11b-high) is measured by flow cytometry. Data are recorded using BD FACSVerse and analyzed using FlowJo software. The percentages are presented as the mean ± standard error of the mean, and statistical significance is determined by comparison with the IgG ISO-type antibody (** p < 0.01).
Article Snippet: Immunohistochemical staining was performed using allophycocyanin (APC)-conjugated anti-human CD47 (B6H12; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) and APC-conjugated mouse IgG1κ isotype control (MOPC-21; BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA) antibodies.
