Results represent one typical experiment out of three performed.

*

EC were treated for 4 hours with medium (control), IL-1 (2 ng/mL), Tat-MBP (20 ng/mL), or equimolar concentrations of MBP.

Results (determined by FACS analysis) are expressed as the percentage of positive cells and the mean channel of fluorescence intensity.
