Figure Lengend Snippet: Histologic examination of the lung tissue from SKG mice at 20 weeks after a curdlan injection with/without PLAG treatment. ( A ) Hematoxylin and eosin (upper panels) and Masson’s trichrome (lower panels) staining of the lung tissues. Severe lung inflammations were observed in the curdlan-induced SKG mice and these features were attenuated in the PLAG-treated curdlan-induced SKG mice. ( B ) Opal multiplexed immunofluorescent images and semi-quantitation of the total, GM-CSF + and IL-17A + neutrophil accumulation in the lung tissues. The GM-CSF + neutrophil accumulation was significantly decreased in the PLAG-treated curdlan-induced SKG mice compared with those without PLAG treatment whereas the IL-17A + neutrophil accumulation was not attenuated. The values represent the mean of three independent experiments ± SEM. * p < 0.05. PLAG: acetylated diacylglycerol 1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoyl-3-acetyl-rac-glycerol.

Article Snippet: The slides were again placed in a citrate buffer (pH 6.0), heated in a microwave and incubated with primary rabbit antibodies for IL-17A (Novus Biologicals, Centennial, CO, USA, NBP1-76337, 1:500) for 1 h in a humidified chamber at RT followed by a detection using polymer HRP Ms + Rb.

Techniques: Injection, Staining, Quantitation Assay
