ExPEC XM O2:K1:H7 infection leads to COX-2 up-regulation in macrophages. (A) The mRNA expression level of COX-2 in RAW264.7 and BMDM macrophages under ExPEC XM O2:K1:H7 infection were analyzed by qRT-PCR. qRT-PCR results were normalized to the housekeeping gene GAPDH. (B) The protein expression level of COX-2 in RAW264.7 and BMDM macrophages after ExPEC XM O2:K1:H7 infection at MOI 10 was analyzed by western-blot. Western-blot results were also analyzed with GAPDH as a loading control. The qRT-PCR represented the mean ± SD of three independent experiments.
