Fig. 7From: Cyclosporine A alleviates colitis by inhibiting the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps via the regulating pentose phosphate pathwayThe decrease of G6PD activity but not protein level dependent on activation of P53 protein by CsA. A Volcano map and cluster heat map of differentially expressed genes in LPS and LPS + CsA groups (|log2FC|≥ 1.5, Qvalue ≤ 0.05). B Protein interaction between differentially expressed genes and G6PD and their cluster heat map. C TP53 transcription levels in the two groups (**P < 0.01 for neutrophils treated with LPS vs LPS + CsA). D Western blotting and quantification of the expression of P53 protein level in each group (*P < 0.05 for neutrophils treated with LPS vs LPS + CsA). E The activity of G6PD in neutrophils under the treatment of PFT-α for 3 h (***P < 0.001 for neutrophils treated with LPS + CsA vs LPS and LPS + CsA + PFT-α). F Western blotting and quantification of the expression of P53 and G6PD protein level in each group (ns: not significance; **P < 0.01 for neutrophils treated with LPS + CsA vs LPS + CsA + PFT-α; ***P < 0.001 for neutrophils treated with LPS vs LPS + CsA)Back to article page
