CypB-CD147 Signaling Is Involved in Crosstalk between Cartilage and FLS in Collagen-Induced Arthritis

Figure 5

Western blot analysis of the NF-κB pathway and CD147 and gene expression of CD147 from cocultured FLS. (a) Grey value of NF-κB p65, I-κBα, and IKK-β. (b) A graphic figure of protein expression in the NF-κB pathway. (c) Gene expression of CD147 in three groups of cocultured FLS. (d, e) Western blot analysis of CD147 in all groups of cocultured FLS. Relative expressions of each protein in the Ctrl group were defined as 1. Values are represented as the . , , , and as compared with the Ctrl group; ^#, ^##, ^###, and ^#### as compared with the IL-1α group (see Figure 2 for other definitions).
