Fig. 3. Effect of zymosan and turpentine treatment on the expression of PCSK9 in mouse liver.

Fig. 3

Mice were injected intraperitoneally with zymosan (80mg/kg body weight) or subcutaneously with turpentine (100ul) and euthanized 16 hours after treatment. Total RNA was isolated from liver tissue, cDNA was synthesized with reverse transcriptase, and quantitative real-time PCR performed as described in Materials and Methods section. The data are presented as the mean +/− SEM. Data are expressed as a percentage of controls. N=4–5 per group. *** p< 0.001 vs. control.
