Gating of Dendritic cells in BALF. Total cells were gated in a FSC/SSC-plot (first column). In this cell population, lineage negative/dim (linneg/dim) cells were gated (second column). In the linneg/dim gate, cells expressing HLA-DR and CD11c were identified as mDCs (linneg/dimHLA-DR+CD11c+)(third column), and cells expressing HLA-DR and CD123 were identified as pDCs (linneg/dimHLA-DR+CD123+)(fourth column). The figure shows the BALF from a patient with COPD (upper panel) and a healthy never-smoker (lower panel).
