TnfrI, Trail, Fadd, RipK1, Casp3, Casp8, Casp9, Dffb, BaK, Bax, Bad, Bid, Xiap, and Akt gene expression was upregulated (Fig. S1A–N), whereas Bcl2 and Bclxl genes (Fig. S1O, P) were downregulated in ARDS-developing as compared to HP-developing mice. This evidence concerns the gene CASP8 and acute respiratory distress syndrome.
