IL-25 inhibited LPS-induced translocation of c-Rel in STAT3-dependent manner in mouse pulmonary macrophages. (A) The level of STAT3 phosphorylation was detected using Western blot. (B) Quantitative analysis of STAT3 phosphorylation in primary culture of mouse pulmonary macrophages using ImageJ. Values are expressed in arbitrary units (a.u.). (C-D) Western blot was performed to measure the protein levels of c-Rel in the cytoplasm (C) and nucleus (D) of mouse pulmonary macrophages. (E-F) Quantitative analysis of c-Rel expresion in cytoplasm (E) and nucleus (F) of mouse pulmonary macrophages using ImageJ. (G) Representative images of c-Rel immunofluorescence staining in primary culture of macrophage from mouse lung. Scale bar, 50 μm. (H) The protein levels of IL-12 A and IL-23 A of mouse pulmonary macrophages was measured using Western blot. (I-J) Quantitative analysis of IL-12 A and IL-23 A in mouse pulmonary macrophages using ImageJ. Values are expressed in arbitrary units (a.u.). (K) The graphical abstract of this study, which was drawn by Figdraw. The experiment was repeated 3 times independently, and the similar trend was obtained. One way ANOVA was used for statistical analysis (* P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01; *** P < 0.001)
