The Effect of Conventional and Mini-Invasive Cardiopulmonary Bypass on Neutrophil Activation in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Figure 4
Illustration of changes in the expression of IL-10R on monocytes of conventional CPB patient. Monocytes are discriminated from other populations of cells by high expression of CD14 (-axis). (a) Leukocytes before surgery. (b) Leukocytes on the 3rd postoperative day. (c) Overlaid histograms of monocytes from (a) and (b). Although the expression of IL-10R on monocytes enhances on the 3rd day after surgery (black line), it is relatively weak considering the isotype control (dark grey line). Intracellular staining did not reveal higher expression of IL-10R in cells (data is not shown).
