Cell suspensions were blocked with FcγIII/II receptor antibody (BD), and subsequently stained with antibodies from BD bioscience (San Jose, CA, USA), i.e., PerCP-Cy5.5-conjugated anti-CD45 (30-F11), FITC-conjugated anti-CD11c (HL3), PE-conjugated anti-SiglecF (E50-2440), PE-Cy7 conjugated anti-Gr-1 (cloneRB6-8C5), APC conjugated anti-CD3e (145-2C11). Cells were acquired on a LSRII flow cytometer (BD bioscience) with data analyzed using FlowJo software (v7.6.5, Tree Star Inc., Ashland, OR, USA). Cell surface marker expression patterns were used to identify the following cell types: T cells (CD45+ CD3+), neutrophils (CD45+ Gr-1high), eosinophils (CD45+ SiglecF+ CD11clow), and alveolar macrophages (CD45+SiglecF+CD11chigh) [28 (link),29 (link),30 (link)].
