Fig. 6From: Histone deacetylase 3 facilitates TNFα-mediated NF-κB activation through suppressing CTSB induced RIP1 degradation and is required for host defense against bacterial infectionHDAC3 deficiency in macrophages aggravates pseudomonas aeruginosa induced acute lung injury due to impaired inflammatory response. A, B ELISA analysis of IL-6 and TNFα in BALF of LysmCre and LysmCreHdac3f/f mice uninstilled or intratracheally instilled with LPS (5 mg/kg) (12 h). C Survival curve of 8-week-olds LysmCre and LysmCreHdac3f/f mice intratracheally received with pseudomonas aeruginosa [Colony forming unit (CFU) = 2 × 107]. PA, Pseudomonas aeruginosa. D Temperature of LysmCre and LysmCreHdac3f/f mice intratracheally received with pseudomonas aeruginosa (CFU = 2 × 107) monitored for 36 h. E CFU of pseudomonas aeruginosa in BALF of LysmCre and LysmCreHdac3f/f mice uninstilled or intratracheally instilled with pseudomonas aeruginosa (CFU = 2 × 107) for 36 h was calculated. F, G H&E staining of LysmCre and LysmCreHdac3f/f mice intratracheal unreceived or received with pseudomonas aeruginosa (CFU = 2 × 107) for 36 h and the lung injury score was calculated. Scale bar: 50 μm. H Pulmonary hemorrhage of LysmCre and LysmCreHdac3f/f mice received with pseudomonas aeruginosa (CFU = 2 × 107) for 36 h was judged by the color of BALF. I ELISA analysis of HMGB1 in the BALF of LysmCre and LysmCreHdac3f/f mice uninstilled or intratracheally instilled with pseudomonas aeruginosa (CFU = 2 × 107) for 36 h. J Schematic diagram of how HDAC3 regulates RIP1 mediated inflammatory response of macrophages. Data are showed as mean ± SEM; n = 4–9 mice per group; *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01Back to article page
