Figure 4From: Human adenovirus type 19 infection of corneal cells induces p38 MAPK-dependent interleukin-8 expressionp38 MAPK is required for IL-8 expression in HAdV-19 infected keratocytes. (A) Cells transfected with p38 MAPK-specific siRNA show approximately 90% reduction in total p38 MAPK protein expression as compared to control siRNA in both mock and virus infected cells. (B) IL-8 production in virus infected keratocytes was reduced to mock infected levels by p38 MAPK-specific siRNA but not by control siRNA (*p = 0.0009).Back to article page
