Figure 5. CD163 protein induction in THP-1 macrophages challenged with a single LPS stimulation.

Figure 5

Representative Westernblot images of CD163 and Beta-Actin proteins in LPS-stimulated THP-1 macrophages transfected with Man-PEI complexed with an empty vector (pEmp or pEmpty), a plasmid encoding for CD163 gene (pCD163) or the Man-PEI nanoparticle alone (A). Quantification of the relative expression (band density) of CD163 in LPS-stimulated THP-1 macrophages from 48 hours after transfection (B). The quantification of the relative density was normalized to the respective levels in the pEmpty group, which was assigned a value equal to 1. N = 10 for pCD163 or pEmpty group. *p< 0.05 vs. pEmpty by student’s t-test.
