Unaltered Kupffer cell size, number, and function in ST3Gal-IVΔ/Δ mice.
(A and B) Kupffer cell (KC) size (A) and total Kupffer cell area per field of view (FOV; B) of wild-type and ST3Gal-IVΔ/Δ mice were quantified from SD-IVM images. (C) Kupffer cell function in wild-type and ST3Gal-IVΔ/Δ mice was assessed by studying staphylococcal catching after i.v. injection of 5 × 107 CFU of S. aureus MW2. Unpaired two-tailed t test (A and B) was used to determine statistical significance. ns, not significant. Results from all experiments shown are representative of at least three independent experiments.
