Fig. 2From: Inhibitory effect of a novel peptide, H-RN, on keratitis induced by LPS or poly(I:C) in vitro and in vivo via suppressing NF-κB and MAPK activationSuppression by H-RN of mRNA and surface expression of ICAM-1 in corneal fibroblasts. Cells were stimulated by LPS (10 μg ml−1) or poly(I:C) (10 μg ml−1) and incubated with or without peptides. The expression of ICAM-1 was measured by immunofluorescence (a, b), Western blot (c–f), and RT-PCR (g, h). Data are expressed as mean ± SD. #p < 0.05 compared with control group; * p < 0.05 compared with LPS or poly(I:C) group. Nucleus (DAPI, blue), ICAM (in red)Back to article page
