Thermal injury recruits neutrophils into the muscles and leads to a temporal overexpression of NF-κB and accumulation of NF-κB-positive nuclei in muscle 2 days post-burn. a Representative images of myeloperoxidase (MPO) immunohistochemistry. Images were obtained at 20× magnification. Arrows indicate MPO-positive nuclei and arrowheads indicate MPO-negative nuclei. b Quantification of MPO-positive nuclei in sham, 2 days, 7 days, and 14 days post-burn. c Representative images of NF-κB immunohistochemistry. Images were obtained at 20× magnification. Arrows indicate NF-κB-positive nuclei and arrowheads indicate NF-κB-negative nuclei. d Quantification of NF-κB-positive nuclei in sham, 2 days, 7 days, and 14 days post-burn. e Representative Western blot for NF-κB. f Quantification of NF-κB protein expression. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
