The expression of CD23 was evaluated by flow cytometry using phycoerythrin–anti-CD23 antibody. The relative fluorescence intensity (RFI) of antibody binding was determined by comparing the mean fluorescence intensity of phycoerythrin–anti-CD23 antibody binding to cells to that of the mean fluorescence intensity of phycoerythrin-labeled calibration beads (QuantiBrite, BD Biosciences), calculated as RFIsample/RFISKW6.4 cells × 100.
Percent apoptosis was measured by flow cytometric assessment of caspase-3 activation, as described in “Apoptosis assays.”
