Figure 5C5aR-dependent upregulation of FcγRI/RIII mRNA in Kupffer cells during AIHA. mRNA expression of FcγRI (
A), FcγRIII (
B), and FcRγ (
C) was determined by TaqMan RT-PCR analysis of liver Kupffer cells derived from C57BL/6 WT and
C5aR–/– mice at 24 hours after injection of 34-3C mAb (black bars) as compared with mice not receiving 34-3C mAb (gray bars). Results are expressed as mean values ± SD obtained from 3–5 mice in each group. Significant differences were determined by Student’s
t test (*
P < 0.05; **
P < 0.001).
