Fig. 1.

Representative histograms of splenic B IgM+ flow cytometry analyses. A. Density plot of the extracellular staining for B IgM, Annexin V and 7-AAD. Three states of the cells were identified: viable cells, QIII (Annexin V/7-AAD = –/–); early apoptotic cells, QIV (Annexin/7-AAD = +/–); necrotic and late apoptotic cells, QI and QII (Annexin V/7-AAD = –/+ and +/+). B. Representative histogram of the sample with high apoptosis. C. Representative histogram of the sample with low apoptosis. The red color on the part B and C indicates on control cells (stained with anti-B IgM antibodies and 7-AAD), whereas the blue color indicates on apoptotic cells stained additionally with Annexin V
