Intestinal stromal cell responses to Salmonella require RIPK2/p38MAPK signaling. Figure 5 shows relative fold changes in IL1B expression determined by qRT-PCR in iSCs left uninfected or after 6 h of infection with live Salmonella at an MOI of 10, in the presence of bacteria alone (−), DMSO or SB203580. Data show mean ± SEM fold increases in IL1B expression by iSCs under the indicated conditions isolated from n = 6 surgical patients. *p < 0.05.
