Fig 2 SAP inhibited STAT6 phosphorylation in M2 macrophages. A, Immunoblotting for p-STAT6 (Tyr641) or total STAT6 in CD11b+ cells cultured with M2 conditioning medium with or without SAP and CRP (20 μg/mL). B, BMDMs from allergic mice were cultured with M2 conditioning medium with or without SAP and CRP. CD11bhigh cells were analyzed for the activation of STAT6. The percentage of cells is indicated in each histogram, and the percentage of STAT6-activated CD11b+ cells is represented in C. Data are presented as means ± SEMs of 2 independent experiments (n = 4 mice per group). ∗P < .05 compared with medium alone.

E, Lung cell differentials in allergic mice. F, Number of CD11b+CD11c+ cells with activated STAT6 in lungs of allergic mice. Data are presented as means ± SEMs of 1 to 3 independent experiments (n = 5 mice per group). ∗P < .05 compared with the PBS (control)–treated group.
