(a) EMSA Supershift was conducted to identify the contributing family members. Lane 2 and lane 4 showed that the AP-1 complex might be composed of ATF2 and c-Jun (indicated by arrows). Western blotting was performed to identify the specific members (b). Both c-Jun and ATF2 were activated in heat-stress groups and got their highest phosphorylation level after 1 h treatment. Data are mean ± S.E., n = 6 per treatment. *p < 0.05, compared to control group, **p < 0.01, compared to control group. 4 h + I: cells pretreated with JNK inhibitor SP600125 and exposed to heat for 4 h
