Reduced Annexin A2 expression in macrophages affects AcGa-1-induced apoptosis. a Relative expression of ANXA2 by qRT-PCR in macrophage cells treated with or without indicated siRNAs. b The expression of apoptosis-associated proteins Bax, caspase-3, caspase-9 and the expression of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 in indicated groups of cells treated with or without AcGal-1. c Quantitation of expression intensity of each protein in b. Data represent the mean ± standard deviation (SD; vertical bars) of triplicate experiments. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
