Figure Lengend Snippet: MPA-R-Lipo enhanced cellular uptake efficiency and suppressed the DCs maturation in vitro. (a) BMDCs were cultured for 7 days and then incubated with DiD-labeled Lipo and R-Lipo for 1 h, respectively. After that, the cells were stained with actin-specific phalloidin-Alexa 488 and DAPI before being observed under CLSM. Scale bar: 50 μm. (b-f) From day 1 of culture, BMDCs were treated with different MPA formulations at the MPA dose of 100 ng/mL, then on day 6, BMDCs were stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for 18 h to induce maturation. (b) Cytotoxicity in CD11c+ cells by propidium iodide stain. Flow cytometric analysis of the CD11c+ BMDCs surface markers (c) CD40 and (d) CD80 expression. ELISA analysis of (e) TNF-α and (f) IFN-γ secretion (n = 3). (ns. No significance).
Article Snippet: Anti-CD11c (PE), anti-CD40 (PerCP-eFluor 710), anti-CD80 (PE/Cy7), and anti-F4/80 (APC-eFluor 780) monoclonal antibodies were bought from eBioscience.
