Checkerboard analysis of MCP-1–induced and HMC-1 sup-induced migration of blood Mo was done as described in the text. Cells were loaded in the upper chamber and after induction by rhMCP-1 or HMC-1 sup and the numbers of migrated Mo were counted in the lower chambers by dye (calcein AM) staining. Various concentrations of rhMCP-1 or HMC-1 sup were applied in either the lower or upper chambers of the chemotaxis assay system, or into both (upper and lower chambers). Selective migration of Mo against MCP-1 and HMC-1-sup suggests a chemotactic response.
