Cardiac-specific expression of sFas suppresses myocardial proinflammatory
cytokine production after Dox treatment. A, expression of TNF-α,
IL-1β, and IL-6 mRNA in the myocardium of saline-, Dox-treated WT and
sFas mice were assayed by RT-PCR. B to D, RT-PCR Bands were quantitated by
densitometric analysis and normalized by β-actin. n = 5 per
group; *, p < 0.05 versus saline-treated controls; #,
p < 0.05 versus Dox-treated sFas mice.
