MLKL mediated the necroptosis elicited by P. gingivalis in periodontal ligament fibroblasts. (a) Expression of MLKL and pMLKL in the lysates of PDLFs after P. gingivalis infection (MOI = 400). (b) Effects of NSA on MLKL, pMLKL, RIPK1, RIPK3 and pRIPK3 at 4 h. The images were collected from different gels with the same loading quantity of protein samples in both figures a and b. (c,d) Cell death by release of LDH. (e,f) IL-6 and MCP-1 levels, as shown by ELISA. (g) Cell death after gene knockdown; The images were collected from the same gel. (*p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001).
