Glutamine and Alanyl-Glutamine Increase RhoA Expression and Reduce Clostridium difficile Toxin-A-Induced Intestinal Epithelial Cell Damage
Figure 2
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) analysis of IEC-6 cell nucleus shape with height scale (color bar): 1000 nm (a) and image of normal IEC-6 cell nucleus in 3D view (b). Effect of 1 h exposure with TcdA (100 ng/mL) on IEC-6 cells nucleus morphology with height scale (color bar): 1000 nm (c) and image of IEC-6 cell treated with TcdA (100 ng/mL) in 3D view (d). The images were confectioned with AFM in the contact mode ( μm2).
