CXCL5 activates JAK/STAT in Schwann cells.

(A-C) Neuroblastoma cell lines BE(2)C (A) and SH-SY5Y (B) and Schwann cell line RT4-D6P2T (C) were treated with CXCL5 at 0, 5, and 50 ng/ml for 45 min and then analyzed by western blot for the expression of STAT1, phosphorylated STAT1 (pSTAT1), STAT3, and phosphorylated STAT3 (pSTAT3). β-actin served as control. (D) The ratio (in percentile) of pSTAT1 versus STAT1 expression for each treatment was determined by dividing the densitometric values of these two protein bands obtained from the western blots. Each bar represents the average of 3 independent experiments. (E) Same as in (D) except that the proteins are pSTAT3 versus STAT3.
