Fig. 3From: Macrophage mediated recognition and clearance of Borrelia burgdorferi elicits MyD88-dependent and -independent phagosomal signals that contribute to phagocytosis and inflammationColocalization of phagosome markers with internalized Bb in WT and MyD88−/− BMDMs. a-b Confocal 40x images of WT (a) and MyD88−/− (b) BMDMs after 6 h stimulation with Bb at MOI 10:1, depicting colocalization of Bb-containing phagosomes with LAMP-1. White box indicates phagosome depicted in inset. Graph shows the intensity of each indicated pixel across the white line (distance on x-axis). Green is Bb, red is LAMP-1 and yellow is actin. c Quantitation of colocalization between Bb and LAMP-1 in 10 phagosomes of WT (black dots) and MyD88−/− (red dots) BMDMs by measuring intensity difference between LAMP-1 staining and Bb staining. d Western blot of protein lysate isolated from WT BMDMs after 6 h stimulation with Bb +/− ATP (C = cell lysate, S = supernatant)Back to article page
