Fig. 7. Schematically, drug-resistant E. coli could induce excessive ROS production by macrophages to promote the expression of inflammatory factors and could enhance a significant increase in the levels of pan-apoptotic proteins leading to cell death. In contrast, amygdalin could inhibit this process by suppressing the generation of ROS and the expression of pan-apoptotic proteins.
