From: Increased circulating leukocyte numbers and altered macrophage phenotype correlate with the altered immune response to brain injury in metallothionein (MT) -I/II null mutant mice

Figure 4

Circulating leukocyte counts after brain injury were obtained with the Advia 120 haemocytological analyser. Absolute cell numbers (A) show an increase at 7 DPI which was significantly different to all time points for wild type mice and from 0-3 DPI time points for MT-I/II-/- mice as determined by Tukey's B post-hoc test. n = 4-6, error bars = SEM. Relative ratios of leukocytes (B) were compared between wild type mice (solid lines) and MT-I/II-/- mice (dashed lines) for lymphocytes (blue circles), neutrophils (purple crosses) and monocytes (red triangles). No significant differences were found between strains for any cell type and no significant changes over time were found for any cell type. n = 4-6, error bars = SEM.
