Figure 1

Changes in percentages of M1 and M2 macrophages during S. japonicum infection. Peritoneal macrophages were purified from normal or S. japonicum infected mice at indicated time points post-infection. Expression of CD16/32 (M1) and CD206 (M2) were evaluated by FCM analysis. (A) Representative histograms obtained by FCM analysis. (B) Percentages of CD16/32+ macrophages and CD206+ macrophages. (C) Mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of CD16/32 and CD206 expression on macrophages. Data are expressed as the mean ± SD of three independent experiments with 6 mice per group in each experiment.
