Opisthorchis felineus infection provokes time-dependent accumulation of oxidative hepatobiliary lesions in the injured hamster liver
Fig 5
Densitometric analysis of CD68 (A), TNF-α (B), α-SMA (C), CK7 (D), and CD163 (E) protein levels in the liver of uninfected and infected hamsters.
(A–E). F. Western blot analysis of lysates from uninfected and infected animals. Protein levels were determined by densitometry of immunoblots (F), and the results were normalized to β-actin. The data are presented as mean ± SD. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001. SD is calculated from the results of three independent experiments. CK7: cytokeratin 7; α-SMA: α smooth muscle actin; TNF-α: tumor necrosis factor α; CD68 (cluster of differentiation 68); CD163 (cluster of differentiation 163); SD, standard deviation.
