Knockdown of Cox4i2 suppresses HHV7-induced RSC96 cell apoptosis via ERK signalling pathway. (A) The apoptotic cells appear green, and the DAPI staining for the nuclei is blue. Representative TUNEL staining image of a mouse section and the percentage of TUNEL positive cells. (B,C) Protein and relative mRNA expressions of caspase3 were analysed by Western Blotting and RT-qPCR in vivo. (D) Representative TUNEL staining image of HHV7-infected RSC96 cells with or without shCox4i2 and the percentage of TUNEL positive cells. (E) Relative mRNA expression of caspase3 was analysed by RT-qPCR in RSC96 cells. (F) Protein expressions of pERK, ERK, and caspase3 were analysed by Western Blotting in RSC96 cells. Data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation, n = 3. Statistical significance was assessed with Student’s t-test and one-way ANOVA. **P < 0.01.
