Figure 2From: The expression of the β-defensins hBD-2 and hBD-3 is differentially regulated by NF-κB and MAPK/AP-1 pathways in an in vitro model of Candida esophagitisPMNs enhances hBD-2 and hBD-3 expression during C. albicans infection. OE21 cells were stimulated with 0.5 × 104 C. albican/ml or 0.5 × 106 PMNs/ml alone or indicated combinations in a transwell setting for 24 h.
