Figure 7. Effect of CXCL8 and CXCL1 siRNA-mediated gene silencing on OXA cytotoxicity and NF-kB signalling pathway activation in HTOXR3 cells.

Figure 7

(a) Dose-response curves for HTOXAR3 cell line, after CXCL8 and (b) CXCL1 gene silencing, treated with 0-100 μM OXA for 24 hours (mean ± SEM). Insets show siRNA-mediated gene silencing efficiency at 48 h post-transfection. IC50 values are indicated as mean (95% CI). (c) Representative western blot images showing changes in phosphorylated IκBα (p-IκBα Ser32/36), phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt Ser473), Survivin, Bcl-2 and Cyclin D1 protein expression in HTOXAR3 cells under control (siNTC) and CXCL8 (siCXCL8) or (d) CXCL1 (siCXCL1) gene silencing. All results were obtained from at least 3 independent experiments.
