Phagocytosis of Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs) in Macrophages Induces Cell Apoptosis

Figure 7

Expression of phosphatidylserine on the cell surface of J774.1 macrophages stimulated by AGE-2 and AGE-3. The J774.1 macrophages were incubated with 100 μg/ml of AGE-2 or AGE-3 at 37°C for 12 hrs. Phosphatidylserine (PS) on the cellular surface was detected by anti-PS antibody. Merged pictures were obtained from AGE and PS staining. Arrowheads indicate double-staining cells.
