Figure 2

Flow cytometric analysis of ED7 and ED9 expression of AM following magnetic bead separation. AM of 3 days NO2-exposed rats were separated due to their expression of the cell surface molecule ED7 using magnetic bead separation. Susbsequently, ED7 (left) and ED9 (right) expression was analyzed in unseparated AM (A), ED7-positive AM (B), and ED7-negative AM (C). Numbers right of each histogram represent the mean fluorescence of the respective cell population. The figure clearly demonstrates that ED7-positive AM show a lower ED9 expression compared to ED7-negative AM. Shown is a representative data set of more than twenty animals.
