Effect of phagocytosis and phagosomal acidification inhibition on IFN-β expression in DC stimulated with live, HI, UVI, and PFAI USA300. DC were pre-treated with 5 μM Cytochalasin D or with 2 μM Chloroquine for 30 min and then stimulated for 5 h with live and inactivated USA300 strain. The expression of IFN-β was evaluated by real-time quantitative RT-PCR. mRNA levels were normalized by the 2−ΔCt formula using GAPDH as housekeeping gene. The results represent means ± SEM of four independent experiments (*p ≤ 0.05).
