From: Characterisation of lung macrophage subpopulations in COPD patients and controls
The expression of macrophage markers in the large alveolar macrophage population in COPD (including smoking status). Flow cytometric analysis of large alveolar macrophages for n = 7 COPD smokers (COPDS) and n = 6 COPD ex-smokers (COPDE). Markers analysed were HLA-DR (A), CD206 (B), CD163 (C), CD14 (D), CD38 (E) and CD36 (F). Data is expressed as the median fluorescence intensity (MFI) of each marker and represents mean (SEM). Unpaired t test (Two-tailed) was performed for each marker. ***Significantly different compared to expression of the same marker on large alveolar macrophages from COPDE patients (p < 0.001).
