Protein expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from systemic lupus erythematosus patients. (a) Intracellular proteins (pIRF7, MAVS, and MDA5) in western blots. (b) Intracellular proteins (caspase-9 and caspase-10) in western blots. pIRF7, phosphorylated interferon regulator factor 7; MAVS, mitochondrial antiviral signaling protein; MDA5, melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5; B1~B19, peripheral mononuclear cell lysate from systemic lupus erythematosus patients.
