Supplementary Figure 2

Mcpt8 mRNA expression relative to GAPDH in Gr-1+ CD11b+ neutrophils (Neu) and F4/80+ CD11b+ macrophages (Macs) that were sorted from the peritoneum of naïve Tnffl/fl mice and Basoph8 x Tnffl/fl mice (n = 3 mice/group). Mcpt8 gene expression was assessed by qPCR using FcεRIα+ CD49b+ c-Kit basophils that were sorted from bone marrow of Tnffl/fl mice as positive controls. Mcpt8 mRNA expression levels in neutrophils and macrophages were normalized against Mcpt8 mRNA expression levels found in bone marrow basophils (Bas). Data are shown as means + SEM with squares representing values for individual experiments. The qPCR data are representative of n = 3 independent experiments performed, each of which gave similar results.
