NK Cell phenotypes assessed by flow cytometry after exposure to pI:C, DEP and pI:C+DEP. (A) Gating strategy for the phenotype analysis. (B) Representative histogram showing that CD16 expression decreased after p:IC+DEP exposure compared to pI:C alone and the subset of CD16- NK cells increased. (C&D) Surface markers presented as fold induction over untreated control of percent of positive total NK cells (C) or mean fluorescecne intensity (MFI) (D). Data are presented as mean±SEM. *significant different from the untreated control, # significant different between each other (both tested with a Wilcoxon signed rank test, *,#p<0.05, n=9).
