The high affinity conformation of β2integrins was promoted by immobilized MK. (A-C) Flow cytometric analysis of the high affinity conformation of β2 integrins of human PMNs using the mAb24 antibody. (A) Quantitative analysis of median fluorescence intensity of isolated PMNs left unstimulated (w/o) or stimulated with soluble MK at various concentrations (100 ng/ml or 30 μg/ml), or TNF-α (100 ng/ml) for 15 minutes at 37°C (n = 4). (B) Analysis of the high affinity conformation of β2 integrins of human PMNs using the mAb24 antibody or control antibody following incubation with microparticles coated with ICAM1 (ICAM1), ICAM1 and MK (ICAM1-MK), or MK (MK), and left untreated (w/o) or after stimulation with soluble MK (100 ng/ml), or TNF-α (100 ng/ml) for 15 minutes at 37°C. Histograms are representative of 6 independent experiments. (C) Quantitative analysis of median fluorescence intensity of mAb24 epitope expression of PMNs binding or nonbinding to coated microparticles (n = 6). (A, C) Show median ± SEM. ***P < .001.
