The neutrophils isolated from mouse bone marrow were incubated with eFluor 670 dye-labeled B. burgdorferi at different ratios for 1 hour. The neutrophils were subsequently washed and analyzed by flow cytometer. (A) Histogram showing neutrophils that phagocytosed Borrelia. High and low represent the ratio of 30 and 1 (B. burgdorferi, 1x105). Y-axis represents relative cell counts calculated as percentage of the maximum events (Borrelia). (B) The graph show percent of phagocytic neutrophils plotted against Borrelia numbers. Results from three independent experiments are shown. The bars represent mean ± SEM and p-values were determined by Student t-test.
