(D) Quantification of changes of the indicated proteins in Western blots of samples from control and CFIm25-OE macrophages at two and six hours postinfection, with values normalized to GAPDH. (E) Representative Western blot showing nuclear and cytoplasmic distribution of NF-κB subunits in control and CFIm25-OE macrophages two and six hours postinfection, assessed by fractionation and immunoblotting. Data from all quantifications are presented as means ± SD from three independent experiments. *, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01.
