BCL-3 Promotes Intracerebral Hemorrhage Progression by Increasing Blood–Brain Barrier Permeability, Inflammation, and Cell Apoptosis via Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress

Figure 3

BCL-3 promotes ICH progression by increasing BBB permeability, ERS, inflammation, and cell apoptosis. (a, b) The expression level of BCL-3, occludin, and claudin-5 was tested by western blotting. (c) The expression level of occludin and claudin-5 evaluated by qPCR. (d) ELISA measured the levels of inflammatory factors of IL-6, IL-1, and TNF-α. (e, f) TUNEL and FCM analyses were performed to measure cell apoptosis. (g) Western blotting performed on ERS-related proteins, including p-PERK, ATF4, and p-IRE1α. (h) TEM observation on the endoplasmic reticulum. .
