Figure Lengend Snippet: Identification of canine macrophage polarization by flow cytometry. Monocyte-derived macrophages were generated from blood of healthy dogs by in vitro culture with or without cytokines as described in methods, and expression of molecules associated with M1 and M2 macrophages was assessed using flow cytometry and cross-reactive antibodies iNOS, inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase; Arginase, TGM2, Transglutaminase 2; CD206, macrophage mannose receptor. (A) Primary antibody staining depicted in blue histograms, while isotype matched, irrelevant antibody staining depicted by red histograms. Marker abbreviation: M0, unstimulated macrophages; M1, macrophages activated with IFN-γ; M2, macrophages activated with IL-4 and IL-13; (B) CD86 expression. % positive cells of total cells immunostained (C) MFI, mean fluorescence intensity. Normalized to isotype controls.
