TLR expression in NSP1 and NSP15 stably expressing A549 ​cells. Representative overlapping FACS histogram demonstrating the expression of (A) TLR2 (B) TLR3 (C) TLR4 and (D) TLR9 gated on live (7AAD-) cells to analyze (E) the number of live cells expressing TLR2, TLR3, TLR4 and TLR9 in NSP1 and NSP15 stably expressing A549 ​cells lines compared to negative control (A549 ​cells). (F) Fold changes in gene (Interferon regulatory factor 1; IRF1 and IRF7) expression based on qRT-PCR in NSP1 and NSP15 stably expressing A549 ​cells lines over negative control (A549 ​cells). Non-parametric Wilcoxon tests (Mann-Whitney) was used to assess normal distribution and test significance with the results shown as mean ​± ​SD. ∗ (p ​≤ ​0.05), and ∗∗∗ (p ​≤ ​0.005) indicates a statistically significant difference. All experiments were performed in 3 technical replicates, and the data are representative of results from minimum of 3 independent experiments.
