| Control | 1 hour | 4 hours | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Spontaneous | 2.0 ± 0.4 | 1.3 ± 0.2* | 0.9 ± 0.1* |
| IFN/TNF 20 U + 10 ng/ml | 0.9 ± 0.2* | 0.6 ± 0.3*† | 0.3 ± 0.3*‡ |
| IL-4 5 μl/ml | 1.8 ± 0.6 | 1.2 ± 0.5* | 1.1 ± 0.4* |
| TGF-β1 5 ng/ml | 3.4 ± 0.3* | 2.6 ± 0.3*† | 2.9 ± 0.5*‡ |
*P < 0.05 compared to untreated rats.
†P < 0.05 compared to spontaneous β-glucuronidase expression at 1 hour.
‡P < 0.05 compared to spontaneous β-glucuronidase expression at 4 hour.
