Immunocytochemical assessment of surface phenotypes for KCs and MNCs under the influence of M1 or M2 inducers. Fluorescent microscopy images display immunostaining (FITC, green); cell nuclei are counterstained with DAPI (blue); KCs: Kupffer cells; MNCs: macrophages of monocytic lineage; scale bar, 50 μm.
