The inflammatory targets of NF-κB were activated in p65-overexpressing cells. The heat maps of the consistently altered genes in p65-overexpressing and knockdown cells are shown. The RNA from SW982 cells, SW982 cells overexpressing p65 (S-OE), SW982 cells with knockdown of p65 (S-KD), HFLS-RA cells (HFLS), HFLS-RA cells overexpressing p65 (H-OE), and HFLS-RA cells with knockdown of p65 (H-KD) were subjected to microarray analysis. The elevated genes are indicated in red, and the downregulated genes are shown in green. qRT-PCR was performed to verify the expression of TNF-α
(B), IL-6
(C), COX-2
(D), IRF-1
(E), CCL5
(F), and CCL20
(G) in SW982, S-OE, S-KD, HFLS, H-OE and H-KD cells. * P <0.05; ** P < 0.001; *** P <0.0001.
