Figure 3From: Implication of scavenger receptors in the interactions between diesel exhaust particles and immature or mature dendritic cells DEP and PAMP modulate protein expression of Scavenger Receptors in MDDC. MDDC were cultivated with TLR2, -3 and -4 ligands respectively Pam3CSK4 (10 μg/ml), poly(I:C) (10 μg/ml) and LPS (1 μg/ml), associated or not with DEP (10 μg/ml). A-B Dendritic cells activated during 6 h (A) and 24 h (B) were labelled for CD36, CXCL16, LOX-1 and SR-B1, and analyzed by flow cytometry. Data are expressed as the mean ± SEM from 3 to 7 independent experiments. +: p < 0.05; ++: p < 0.01 compared with unstimulated cells. ✻: p < 0,05 compared with TLR-treated cells. C-D Flow cytometry histograms of a representative experiment. MDDC were cultivated for 6 h (C) and 24 h (D) with DEP (blue line), with TLR2 ligand (Pam3CSK4, red line), and with both stimuli (green line) as compared with cells in medium alone (black line).Back to article page
