Fig 4. Effect of TLR2 activation in in vitro-cultured primary normal BM CD34+ cells. (a) Flow cytometry analysis of normal CD34+ cells after being treated with MALP2 or PAM3CSK4 for 48 h. Compared with control, treatment resulted in a decreased percentage of early erythroid progenitor cells marked with CD71+ and HLA-DR.
