Modulation of the Expression of the Proinflammatory IL-8 Gene in Cystic Fibrosis Cells by Extracts Deriving from Olive Mill Waste Water

Figure 4

Effects of olive oil extract on the molecular interactions between NF-κB p50 and ³²P-labeled target NF-κB double-stranded oligonucleotide. Extract was first incubated with NF-κB, and then the ³²P-labeled target NF-κB oligonucleotide was added. NF-κB/DNA complexes were analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Arrows indicate NF-κB/DNA complexes; asterisks indicate the free ³²P-labeled target NF-κB probe.
