From: Pro-inflammatory properties of H-ferritin on human macrophages, ex vivo and in vitro observations
The effects of ferritin on intracellular protein expressions of macrophages. (A) Western blot analyses of IL-1β, IL-12 and NLPR3, pictures are representative of all the experiments. The grouping of gels/blots cropped from different parts of the same gel. No high-contrast (overexposure) of blots was performed. (B–D) The densitometry analysis of western blot shows that the ferritin stimulation of macrophages, for both 120 and 240 min, does not change the protein expressions of IL-1β (B), IL-12 (C) and NLPR3 (D). Any single dot, in the figure, represents the median of triplicate experiments.
