From: The clinical Pseudomonas fluorescens MFN1032 strain exerts a cytotoxic effect on epithelial intestinal cells and induces Interleukin-8 via the AP-1 signaling pathway

Figure 6

Effects of P. fluorescens MF37, P. fluorescens MFN1032 and P. aeruginosa PAO1 on Caco-2/ap1-luc-1 and HT-29/ap1-luc-6 cells expressing an AP-1/luciferase reporter system. The relative AP-1 activation corresponding to luciferase activity is expressed in comparison to the activity measured in untreated control cells. Phorbol-myristate -acetate (PMA) or butyric acid were used as positive controls of AP-1 pathway activation in Caco-2/ap1-luc-1 or HT-29/ap1-luc-6 reporter cells respectively. ns: not significant, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001.
