Figure 8

Assessment of apoptotic-related proteins in MFG-E8 knockdown IEC lines. The mRNA level of the antiapoptotic factor BCL-2 in Caco-2 cells (A) and proapoptotic factor BAX in Caco-2 (B) and HT-29 cells (C) with LV-M or LV-C transduction is shown. (D) Western blot analysis of cleaved caspase-3, BCL-2 and BAX protein level with LV-M or LV-C transduction in HT-29 and Caco-2 cells. (E) Western blot analysis of cleaved caspase-3, BCL-2 and BAX protein levels in IECs incubated with rhMFG-E8 at different concentrations for 24 h.
