Expression levels of LPS-induced C3 mRNA in different culture conditions. A Primary neuron/glial and neuron-microglia (without astroglia) cultures were treated with LPS 15 ng/ml. C3 mRNA was detected on day 1 after treatment. Note that the level of C3 mRNA of neuron-glial culture, which showed the highest increase in response to LPS treatment, was set as 100%. This way showed a clearer picture between the treatment groups. B C57BL/6 J neuron-astroglial cultures were treated with LPS, control-conditioned medium (CM), and glia-conditioned medium (GCM). C3 mRNA was detected on day 3 after treatment. C Astroglia-, neuron-, and microglia-enriched cultures were treated with GCM; C3 mRNA was detected 1 day after treatment. Note that the level of C3 mRNA of enriched astroglia, which showed the highest increase in response to LPS treatment, was set as 100% to show a clearer picture indicating the differences between the treatment groups. All results are mean ± SEM from at least three independent experiments in duplicate. ** and ## p < 0.01, *** p < 0.0001. Panels A and C were analyzed with two-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s post hoc multiple comparisons test. Panel B was analyzed with one-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s post hoc multiple comparisons test
