Figure 7. Down-regulation of P2Y11R mRNA expression in matured MoDCs correlates with reduced ATP-mediated arrest of migration. (A) Effect of 100 μM ATP on the migration of MoDCs matured with TNF-α, IFN-α, and PGE2 for 24 or 48 hours. Migration to CCL21 in the absence of ATP was normalized to 100% (mean ± SEM; n = 7). *P < .01. (B) P2Y11R mRNA expression as measured by RT-PCR in immature MoDCs (GM-CSF + IL-4) or those matured overnight with TNF-α + IFN-α + PGE2, CD40L, or E coli. (C) Quantitative analysis of P2Y11R mRNA expression as measured by quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR). Threshold was exceeded after 24 PCR cycles in immature MoDCs. Immature MoDCs were used as the calibrator to calculate relative P2Y11R mRNA levels in MoDCs matured in the presence of the indicated stimuli. Expression of 18S rRNA within each sample was used for normalization (mean ± SEM; n = 4).
