Fig. 3. Activity of the transgenes in isolated macrophages from 3 different transgenic mice. / This study generated 3 strains of transgenic mice. They were 3.5fms-EGFP (4 independent lines), 7.2fms-EGFP (6 independent lines), and 7.2fmsΔFIRE-EGFP (6 independent lines). Analyses were done on at least 3 independent lines for each strain. Macrophages isolated from peritoneum (thioglycollate–elicited peritoneal macrophages [TEPM]), derived from bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) and from bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), were subjected to FACS analysis. Representative FACS profiles (filled histograms) of macrophages isolated from 3.5fms-EGFP TG mice are shown in the top row. Middle row profiles show the representative profiles of EGFP expression in macrophages isolated from 7.2fms-EGFP TG mice; histograms in the bottom row are the representative profiles of EGFP expression in macrophages isolated from 7.2fmsΔFIRE-EGFP TG mice. Dotted lines represent histograms of nontransgenic littermate controls.
