Fig. 3From: Diet-induced obesity alters myeloid cell populations in naïve and injured lungAlveolar Macrophage Polarization Markers at 3 and 6 Months. Alveolar macrophages were identified by FACS of whole lung digests. The surface expression for ICAM-1 and CD71 was assessed for changes in mean fluorescent intensity (ΔMFI) compared to isotype control. a At 3 months, there was no change in ICAM-1 expression but there was a significant reduction in CD71 expression in HFD mice. b By 6 months, there was an increase in ICAM-1 expression and a further reduction in CD71 expression in HFD mice. *p value < 0.05; mean ± SEM (n = 5 mice/group, experimental replicates 2–3)Back to article page
