From: BTN2A2 protein negatively regulates T cells to ameliorate collagen-induced arthritis in mice

Figure 2

The expression pattern of the putative BTN2A2 receptor on immune cells. Resting and activated immune cells were prepared as Fig. 1. The immune cells were incubated with biotinylated BTN2A2-Ig or control Ig protein for 4 h, followed by PE conjugating streptavidin and antibodies against CD4, CD8, CD11c or F4/80 or CD19. (A) Representative flow cytometric profiles and (B) statistical analysis showing the binding of BTN2A2-Ig or control Ig to resting and activated immune cells. Data are presented as the percentage of cell binding of BTN2A2-Ig versus control Ig. *P < 0.05 compared with control Ig. **P < 0.05 compared with resting cells. The data are representative of three independent experiments with similar results. (n = 3 each experiment).
