Extended Data Fig. 2: Muscle macrophages downregulate myeloid markers post-ischemia induction.

From: Macrophages upregulate mural cell-like markers and support healing of ischemic injury by adopting functions important for vascular support

Extended Data Fig. 2

a) Gating strategy and FMO controls of data from ischemic muscle shown in Fig. 1i and Extended Data Fig. 1J-K. b) Representative image of a PDGFRβ+ (green) tdTomato+ cell (red) localized between the collagen IV+ basement membrane (blue) and CD31+ vasculature (white) in the ischemic muscle of Cx3cr1CreERT2 Rosa26-tdTomato PdgfrβeGFP lineage-traced mice. c) FlowJO UMAP plugin analysis reveals TdTomato+ lineage traced cells cluster into PDGFRβ+CD11blowCD45lowCX3CR1low (black) and PDGFRβ-CD11bhighCD45highCX3CR1high populations (blue). Cells isolated from day 21 ischemic muscle of Cx3cr1CreERT2 Rosa26-tdTomato PdgfrβeGFP mice. d) Myeloid markers are reduced with time following ischemia in the tdTomato+PDGFRβ+ population (left) but not in the tdTomato+PDGFRβ- cells (right) in the Cx3cr1CreERT2 Rosa26-tdTomato PdgfrβeGFP lineage-traced mouse model. Graphs related to Fig. 1i. n = 4. e) Numbers of cells expressing myeloid markers following ischemia in the tdTomato+PDGFRβ+ population (upper) but not in the tdTomato+PDGFRβ- cells (down) in the Cx3cr1CreERT2 Rosa26-tdTomato PdgfrβeGFP lineage-traced mouse model. n = 4. K) Gating strategy and FMO controls of muscle from mice at 3 months post-ischemia induction. One-way ANOVA followed by Turkey test (d-e). Data shown as average ± SEM.
