Effects of LPS on TREM expression. Macrophages and endothelial cells, isolated from livers of C3H/OuJ mice 24 hr after administration of LPS or CTL were incubated with LPS (100 ng/ml) or medium for 3, 6 and/or 10 hr. TREM mRNA was quantified by real-time PCR. Data are presented as fold change relative to cells treated with medium which was normalized to one. Each bar is the mean ± SD (n=8–12) from 2–3 separate experiments. *Significantly different (p<0.05) from cells treated with medium.
