Finally, cxcr3 expression shows an increasing trend; However, transcription levels do not show a significant difference with respect to time 0 h ( Figure 8 ). 3.6 Viral stimuli regulate the expression of cxcl9, cxcl10, cxcl11 and cxcr3 in the SHK-1 cell line We next wondered whether poly I:C, a synthetic analog of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) that mimics a viral molecular pattern, can also regulate the gene expression of the CXCL9-11/CXCR3 axis.
Key apoptotic genes, such as Casp3, Card10, Bid , and Bcl-2 , were at a significantly higher level of expression in SHAM infected mice ( Figures 5I–K ), while other proapoptotic genes, like Bax, Bad, Casp3 , and Fas , showed a trend of being higher ( Supplementary Figures 5G–J ), in addition to other differentially expressed apoptosis related genes as plotted via heatmap ( Figure 5G ; Supplementary Figure 5F ).
Intriguingly, while CXCR2 alteration did not affect dendritic cell, T cell, NK cell, and NKT cell infiltration, it showed a trend towards reducing neutrophil infiltration, particularly in acute colonic inflammation, indicating CXCR2’s primary involvement in neutrophil-mediated inflammation in UC ( 32 ).
