A. fumigatus infection induced a change in cofilin phosphorylation. A549 cells were infected with the resting conidia of A. fumigatus ATCC13073 (a, b), swollen conidia of A. fumigatus ATCC13073 (c, d) or ΔrodA-mutant conidia (e, f) at an MOI of 10 for the indicated times. Cofilin and p-cofilin were measured by western blotting with the indicated antibodies (a, c, and e); the densitometric analyses of the western blots for three independent experiments are shown (b, d, and f). The blots are characteristic of three independent experiments and data are shown as the mean ± SE, * P < 0.05 compared with 0
