HMGB1 Facilitated Macrophage Reprogramming towards M1-like dependent on PI3Kγ- Erk1/2 pathway.
(A,B) HMGB1 activated the PI3Kγ/Erk1/2 in ANA-1. ANA-1 was treated by 100ng/ml rHMGB1. At the points indicated, cells was harvested; phosphorylated PI3Kγ and Erk1/2 levels were assessed by western blot. Representative blots were shown above and densitometric analyses below. (C) iNOS and Arg-1 mRNA expression in HMGB1-treated ANA-1 macrophages with/without AS605240 or U0126 pre-exposure for 1h. Values were expressed as iNOS and Arg-1 compared with 18s. Data were means±SD from three independent experiments. p-values were calculated using the paired t-test. p<0.05 was considered statistically significant.
