Cell surface expression of RAGE and RAGE cysteine-to-serine mutants.

<p>FLAG-tagged RAGE and RAGE mutants were transfected to CHO-CD14 cells. After overnight incubation, the transfected cells (10⁶) were stained with anti-FLAG antibodies and subjected to flow cytometry analyses. Non-transfected cells with same staining were used as negative controls. All values were expressed as mean ± SEM, and the data were from independent transfections (<i>n</i> = 3). The <i>p</i> value for presented data is <0.01 (ANOVA).
