Eotaxin-1 and eotaxin-2 levels in BALF and plasma were quantified by using Quantikine ELISA Kits (R&D Systems Inc, Minneapolis, MN). Expression of eotaxins by proangiogenic hematopoietic progenitor cells was quantified using immunofluorescence as described in details elsewhere (30 (link)). Rabbit anti-mouse eotaxin-1 (1/50, Santa Cruz) and goat anti-mouse eotaxin-2 (1/50, Santa Cruz) polyclonal antibodies were used. Biotinylated donkey anti-rabbit (1/1,000 Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories, West Grove, PA) and streptavidin Alexa Fluor 568 (1/500, Life Technologies. Carlsbad, CA) were used as secondary and tertiary reagents, respectively, for eotaxin-1 detection. Donkey anti-goat Alexa Fluor 488 (1/500, Life Technologies) was used as secondary antibody for eotaxin-2. Values from different experiments were normalized against OVA/OVA group.
