Levels of monokine-specific mRNAs were determined in vitamin D3-treated THP-1 cells 12 h after stimulation by RPA and normalized to those of the L32 housekeeping gene. Values were determined relative to induction by PamCSK (set as 100%) as means of three independent experiments (standard deviations are indicated [P < 0.01]). Statistically significant differences from the control are indicated by asterisks.
