Phenotypic comparison of ProNeus with NCP5s, NCP6s, eNePs, and PMs w/o eNePs by flow cytometry. A Flow cytometry gating strategy to identify the ProNeus in SSChiLin-CD45+ cells in BM-LDCs (panel II, green gate) according to their CD66b+CD49d+CD11b- phenotype. B Plots showing how ProNeus (green dots as defined in A) overlay PMs w/o eNePs (yellow gate), eNePs (blue gate), NCP5s (light green gate) and NCP6s (red gate), as defined by the gating strategy illustrated in Fig. 1. C Contour plot overlays highlighting the differences among NCP5s, NCP6s, eNePs, PM w/o eNePs and ProNeus in terms of the SSC-A parameter and CD66b expression. The data are representative of 1 of 4 independent experiments, with similar results
