Ghrelin Protects against the Detrimental Consequences of <i>Porphyromonas gingivalis</i>-Induced Akt Inactivation through S-Nitrosylation on Salivary Mucin Synthesis

<table>Effect of ghrelin on <i>P. gingivalis </i>LPS-induced changes in the expression of iNOS protein and cNOS phosphorylation in the acinar cells. The cells were treated with the LPS at 100 ng/mL or ghrelin (Gh) at 0.6 <i>μ</i>g/mL + LPS and incubated for 16 h. Cell lysates were resolved on SDS-PAGE, transferred to nitrocellulose, and probed with anti-iNOS antibody or phosphorylation-specific cNOS (pcNOS) antibody, and after stripping reprobed with anti-cNOS antibody. The immunoblots shown are representative of three experiments.</table>
