Expression of RAGE on human APC's and T cells.

<p>A: Surface RAGE expression was studied on CD11c+ PBMC before (top) and after (bottom) culture with LPS for 7 days. (solid line = staining with anti-RAGE antibody, dashed line = staining with isotype control) B: Cell surface (L and intracellular RAGE expression was studied on CD4+ T cells before (top) and after 7 days in culture with anti-CD3 mAb (bottom). A single experiment representative of cultures with more than 4 donors is shown. C: PBMC were activated with anti-CD3 mAb for 48 hrs and lysed or separated into CD4+ and CD8+ T cells with magnetic beads and lysed. A blot of the lysates was probed with anti-RAGE antibody. The arrow identifies RAGE in the cells.
