Figure 10. Effect of MTX and TGF-β on p-ERK, β-catenin, IL-1B and Bax protein levels.

Figure 10

Relative expression of p-ERK, β-catenin, IL-1B and Bax proteins in jejunum and ileum as determined by Western blot analysis of rats following MTX induced mucositis. Values are mean ± SEM. CONTR-control, MTX-methotrexate, TGF-β -transforming growth factor beta. *P<0.05 MTX, MTX-TGF-β and CONTR-TGF-β versus CONTR rats, P<0.05 MTX- TGF-β versus MTX rats. ERK2 was detected using anti-ERK2 antibody to verify equal protein loading.
