Chemokine expression is increased in bleomycin-treated skin from MKP-1-deficient mice. MCP-1 (A), MIP-1α (B), and MIP-2 (C) mRNA expression in untreated control skin and in the skin treated with bleomycin from wild-type (WT) and MKP-1-deficient (MKP-1−/−) mice was measured by quantitative RT-PCR analysis and normalized against GAPDH mRNA. MCP-1, MIP-1α and MIP-2 levels in WT control skin was set as 1, and the other values are given in relation to that value. Bars represent mean + SEM; n = 8 in the control groups and n = 6 in the bleomycin groups. Statistical significance of the results was calculated by two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test.
