From: Heat-stress-modulated induction of NF-κB leads to brucellacidal pro-inflammatory defense against Brucella abortus infection in murine macrophages and in a mouse model

Fig. 4

Bacterial killing activity was evaluated in murine macrophages exposed to heat stress. Bacterial internalization of B. abortus after treatment with heat stress (a). Intracellular growth of B. abortus in RAW 264.7 cells initially infected and exposed to heat (b). Intracellular growth of B. abortus in BMM initially infected and exposed to heat (c). Data represent the mean ± SD of triplicate experiments. Asterisks indicate significant differences (p < 0.01)
