Real time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) (A) and northern blot analysis (B) of interleukin 8 (IL-8) mRNA expression in confluent Caco-2 cells following exposure to pathogenic and commensal bacteria. 1, Unstimulated controls; 2, challenged with Salmonella enteritidis; 3, S enteritidis with Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron; and 4, B thetaiotaomicron alone. mRNA levels were normalised using glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate dehydrogenase (G-3-PDH).
