From: The inhibitory receptor LILRB4 (ILT3) modulates antigen presenting cell phenotype and, along with LILRB2 (ILT4), is upregulated in response to Salmonella infection

Figure 4

Salmonella typhimurium upregulates expression of LILRB2 and LILRB4 on in vitro -cultured macrophages. Real-time PCR was used to assess the expression of LILRB2 and LILRB4 mRNA in monocyte-derived macrophages treated with either live or heat-killed GFP+ S. typhimurium. Salmonella infection was confirmed by flow cytometic detection of GFP (data not shown). p-values were calculated using a two-tailed Wilcoxon rank test, using a 95% confidence level on Prism Software (GraphPad, USA).
