Flow cytometry analysis of the counts of different subpopulations of monocytes. PBMCs from IMN patients and HC were stained with anti-CD14 and anti-CD163. The cells were gated firstly on mononuclear cells and secondly on CD14+ monocytes. Afterwards, the counts of CD14+CD163āˆ’ M1-like and CD14+CD163+ M2-like monocytes were determined by flow cytometry. (a) Representative frequency of monocyte subpopulations. (b) Quantitative analysis of monocyte subpopulations. Horizontal lines show the median values.
