Figure 8From: Conditional deletion of epithelial IKKβ impairs alveolar formation through apoptosis and decreased VEGF expression during early mouse lung morphogenesisEpithelial deletion of IKKβ decreases VEGF expression. Immunofluorescence showing VEGF expression in control (A) versus double transgenic (B) lungs. (C) Real-time quantitative PCR showing VEGF expression. (D) Real-time quantitative PCR from siRNA knockdown in MLE-15 cells in vitro showing Gapdh, Vegf, and IKKβ expression. [Data are expressed as Mean ± SEM, *p < 0.05].Back to article page
