Roquefort Cheese Proteins Inhibit Chlamydia pneumoniae Propagation and LPS-Induced Leukocyte Migration

Figure 4

Dendritic cell subpopulations in peritoneal washes obtained from LPS-stimulated mice fed with Roquefort cheese. Mice were gavaged twice (once daily) with PBS containing 10.0 mg of Roquefort cheese or PBS alone (control). 24 hours later, the animals were injected intraperitoneally with LPS or its solvent (PBS). Peritoneal washes were obtained 48 hours after LPS injection. Dendritic cell subpopulations (CD11⁺CD8⁺CD86⁻, CD11⁺CD8⁺CD86⁺, and CD11⁺CD8⁺CD⁺8⁺) were quantified as described in Section 2.
