“…Characterisation of MICL expression in 8–12-week-old wt and Clec12A −/− mice was performed by flow cytometry on cells isolated from the peripheral blood, bone marrow, peritoneal cavity, spleen and lungs, as previously described. 14 Antibodies used in these experiments included biotin anti-MICL monoclonal antibody 309 7 and isotype control, as well as biotin-Gr-1, FITC-7/4, PE-F480, biotin-F480, PerCpCy5.5-CD11b, PE-CCR3, biotin-NK1.1, PE-CD49, PerCpCy5.5-B220, PE-CD19, PerCpCy5.5-CD3, biotin-CD4, FITC-CD8, biotin-CD11c, PerCpCy5.5-Gr-1, APC-Ly6G, PE-CD11b, PE-Ly6G, PECy7-CD11b, Alexa Fluor 488 anti-STAT5, APC-streptavidin (all from BD Biosciences), and Alexa Fluor 700-F4/80 (BioLegend). Flow cytometry was undertaken using a BD LSRFortessa cell analyser and data analysed using FlowJo.…”
