STAT1/SOCS1/3 Are Involved in the Inflammation-Regulating Effect of GAS6/AXL in Periodontal Ligament Cells Induced by Porphyromonas gingivalis Lipopolysaccharide In Vitro

Figure 1

Effects of P. gingivalis LPS on the expression of TAM receptors and GAS6 in hPDLCs. The hPDLCs were challenged with 0, 0.1, 1, and 10 μg/mL P. gingivalis LPS for 24 h. (a) Protein levels detected by western blotting. (b) ImageJ analysis of the western blots with a value of 1.0 assigned to the expression of each protein in the unchallenged sample. (c) Morphological images of hPDLCs treated with LPS.
