Fig. 3From: Glycyrrhetinic acid protects against Multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii-induced lung epithelial cells injury by regulating inflammation and oxidative stressEffects of GA on adhesion and invasion of MDR-AB infecting cells. MDR-AB infecting Cell was cultured with or without GA and/or MER for 12 h, and the supernatant of each group of cells was discarded and washed with PBS three times. The culture medium was discarded, and the cells were lysed. The lysate was diluted and incubated on LB solid medium for counting adhered (A, C) and invaded bacterially (B, D). *P < 0.05 vs. MDR-AB group; *P < 0.05 vs. MDR-AB group; **P < 0.01 vs. MDR-AB group: #P < 0.05 vs. control group; ##P < 0.01 vs. control groupBack to article page
