SAH was induced in male Wistar rats. Rats were treated with IFN-β for four consecutive days starting at two hours after the induction of SAH. Seven days post-SAH total lung homogenates were prepared and analyzed for inflammatory markers. (a) MPO activity corrected for the amount of protein. (b-d) Expression of endothelial activation markers E-selectin, ICAM-1, and VCAM-1. (e-g) Expression of chemokines MIP-1α, MIP-2, and CINC-1. (h) Expression of TNF-α. (b-h) Data are normalized for the expression of β-actin and GAPDH. Sham: N = 4; Sham/IFN-β: N = 4; SAH: N = 7; SAH/IFN-β: N = 6. *** P < 0.001, ** P < 0.01, * P < 0.05; SAH vs sham or SAH/IFN-β vs SAH. MPO, myeloperoxidase; MIP, macrophage-inflammatory protein; CINC, cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant.
