Fig. 2From: Extracellular CIRP decreases Siglec-G expression on B-1a cells skewing them towards a pro-inflammatory phenotype in sepsisExpression of Siglec-G by B-1a cells is dramatically reduced after sepsis, but its expression is protected in CIRP−/− mice after sepsis. WT and CIRP−/− mice were randomly assigned to sham or CLP groups. 20 h after CLP, peritoneal lavage samples were collected for analysis. A Representative dot blots of the gating strategy of Siglec-G expression on B-1a cells of sham and CLP mice are shown. B, C Status of Siglec-G expression by B-1a cells in terms of frequency (%) and number after surgery are shown. Data are expressed as means ± SE (n = 10–14 mice/group). The groups were compared by one-way ANOVA and Student–Newman–Keuls (SNK) method (*p < 0.05 vs. WT sham and #p < 0.05 vs. WT CLP mice)Back to article page
