DEFB118 suppressed ETEC-induced the jury of IPEC-J2 and phosphorylation of IκB-α and NF-κB. IPEC-J2 cells were pretreated with DEFB118 (25 μg/mL) for 12 h or with BAY11-7082 for 2 h, followed by co-treatment with ETEC (1 × 106 CFU) for 1 h. A Zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) distribution in the IPEC-J2 cells (immunofluorescence). B Western blot and quantitative analysis of phosphorylation of IκBα and NF-κB. Scale bar = 50 μm. n=3. Data were presented as mean ± standard error (SEM). a-b Values within a column differ if they do not share a common superscript (P<0.05). “ CON ” stand for “ Control ” “ BAY ” stand for “ BAY11-7082 ” “ DEFB ” stand for “ DEFB118 ” “ ETEC ” stand for “ ETEC ” “ ETECB ” stand for “ BAY11-7082+DEFB118 ” “ ETECD ” stand for “ ETEC+DEFB118 ”
