Figure Lengend Snippet: Transcriptome sequencing results and validation. (A) Volcano plot of differentially expressed genes between the USMB group and the Model group; (B) GO enrichment analysis; (C) Principal component analysis (PCA) plot; (D) KEGG enrichment analysis of differentially expressed genes; (E) Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and corresponding heatmap; (F) PCR validation of selected differentially expressed genes associated with the IL-17 signaling pathway based on sequencing results; (G, H) Validation of IL-17 signaling pathway: protein expression levels of IL-17B, TNF-α, IL-17β, and NF-κB, along with quantitative statistical results. Data are presented as Mean ± SD, n= 4; *p< 0.05, **p< 0.01.
Article Snippet: The membrane was blocked with 5% skim milk prepared in Tris-buffered saline with Tween (TBST), followed by overnight incubation with primary antibodies against IL-17B (1:800, BOSTER), NF-κB (1:2000, Proteintech), TNF-α (1:800, BOSTER), and IL-1β (1:1000, Proteintech).
