FIG. 9.
Expression of genes encoding connexins and heat shock proteins. (A) Mean expression ratio (log2) kinetics of genes encoding connexins in HMCs infected with conidia of A. fumigatus (P ≤ 0.05 for peak change compared to T0). Results for the following genes are shown: GJB6 (gap junction protein B6, connexin 30) and GJB2 (gap junction protein B2, connexin 26). (B) Mean expression ratio (log2) kinetics of genes encoding heat shock proteins in HMCs infected with conidia of A. fumigatus (P ≤ 0.05 for peak change compared to T0). Results for the following genes are shown: DNAJB4 (heat shock protein 40 kDa). HSPH1 (heat shock protein 110 kDa).
