Fig 6. Differential modulation of the EC death related gene expression with Pg and its LPS in Ox-LDL and TNF-α pre-treated cells.

Fig 6

(A) Gene expression of Caspase-1,-3 and -9 in HUVECs infected with Pg at a MOI of 100 or with heat inactivated Pg and stimulated by Pg-LPS (1μg/ml) or E.Coli-LPS (1μg/ml) at 24h. (B) Gene expression for the same described genes in Ox-LDL pre-treated HUVECs at 24h. (C) Gene Expression for the same described genes in TNF- α pre-treated HUVECs at 24h. Data were expressed as mean ± SD. *: difference between non-stimulated/infected and stimulated/infected cells, p < 0.05, ┼: difference between non pre-treated/stimulated/infected and treated cells, p < 0.05.
