Fig. 5From: Forkhead-box transcription factor 1 affects the apoptosis of natural regulatory T cells by controlling Aven expressionDetection of apoptosis after knockdown and over-expression of Aven in Treg cells. Expression of the (a) mRNA and (b)protein of Aven in Treg cells 48 h after transfection with Aven siRNA or over-expression plasmid of Foxo1. c Representative result of apoptosis in nTreg and iTreg cells 48 h after transfection with Aven siRNA or over-expression plasmid of Foxo1. Treg cells were stimulated with anti-CD3 (0.01 μg/ml) and anti-CD28 (1.0 μg/ml) in medium during culture. Data are presented as the mean + standard deviation (SD). ***P <0.001Back to article page
