From: C-reactive protein does not opsonize early apoptotic human neutrophils, but binds only membrane-permeable late apoptotic cells and has no effect on their phagocytosis by macrophages

Figure 2

Lack of CRP binding to early apoptotic human neutrophils. FITC-CRP binding to aged human neutrophils was assessed by dual color flow cytometry using annexin V-PE to identify apoptotic cells. In comparison with buffer alone (a), FITC-CRP did not bind to apoptotic neutrophils at concentrations up to 100 μg/ml (b,c).
