Fig. 7From: Occupational quartz and particle exposure affect systemic levels of inflammatory markers related to inflammasome activation and cardiovascular diseaseRepresentative flow cytometry plots used to determine the percent of monocytes in the caspase-1 positive (inflammasome activated) peak. A Gating of CD14+ monocytes. B-E Caspase-1 enzymatic activity in gated monocytes measured by the FAM-YVAD-FMK probe in B untreated cells, C LPS treated cells, D ATP treated cells, E LPS + ATP treated cells. V2-R indicates caspase-1 (inflammasome) activated cellsBack to article page
