Correlation between apoptosis and p-Akt, p-ERK or p-JNK expression.
Pearson linear correlation analysis shows that apoptosis is negatively correlated with p-Akt expression (r = −0.352, P < 0.05); p-ERK and p-JNK expression showed no correlation with apoptosis (r = −0.24, P = 0.056; r = 0.09, P = 0.47). p: Phosphorylated; Akt: serine-threonine kinase; ERK: extracellular signal-regulated kinase; JNK: c-Jun N-terminal kinase.
