From: Gingipains from Porphyromonas gingivalis play a significant role in induction and regulation of CXCL8 in THP-1 cells

Figure 2

The mRNA expression of CXCL8 in THP-1 cells stimulated with wild-type or gingipain mutants of P. gingivalis . CXCL8 transcription following 24 hour treatment of THP-1 cells with (MOI 100) viable ATCC3277 (ATCC), W50, E8, K1A or heat-killed ATCC 33277 (ATCCHK) or W50 (W50HK). Values represent the mean ± SD. Statistically significant differences compared to the negative control. (*p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001; n = 3).
