Low-Frequency Low-Intensity Ultrasounds Do Not Influence the Survival and Immune Functions of Cultured Keratinocytes and Dendritic Cells

Figure 3

US at 42 KHz and 0.15  do not alter membrane molecule expression in human keratinocytes. Keratinocytes were analyzed for 1 and 6 4 integrins, ICAM-1 and HLA-DR expression by flow cytometry after 1–3 cycles of US or treatment with IFN- plus TNF- . Dotted lines represent staining with matched isotype immunoglobulins. The x-axis and the y-axis indicate the relative cell number and fluorescence intensity, respectively.
