CD11b expression on THP-1 cells treated with PMA for different periods. (a) After PMA treatment for 1 to 5 days, cell lysates (10 μg of proteins) were separated by SDS-PAGE (7% polyacrylamide gel) and detected with anti-CD11b or anti-β-actin antibodies. (b) The expression of CD11b also shows bar graphs. The value at day 1 was defined as 1. The values were indicated by mean + SD ( = 4, < 0.05 versus day 1, < 0.01 versus day 1, and < 0.05 versus day 1.5).
