MafK accelerates Salmonella mucosal infection through caspase-3 activation
Figure 6. MafK is involved in the activation of caspase-3 and p65. (A, B) Levels of cleaved caspase-3 in siRNA MafK Caco-2 cells and control cells. (C, D) Levels of cleaved caspase-3 in MafK-overexpressing Caco-2 cells and control cells infected with Salmonella. (E–H) Levels of MafK and p65 in MafK-overexpressing Caco-2 cells and control cells infected with Salmonella. (I–K) Levels of p65 in siRNA MafK Caco-2 cells and control cells infected with Salmonella. Levels of p65 in MafK siRNA Caco-2 cells (L) and MafK-overexpressing Caco-2 cells (M). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.
