TNF-α was measured in serum using multiplex bead array reagents (Invitrogen) on a BioRad Bio-Plex analyzer. Data are shown as mean TNF-α in pg/ml ± SEM at 6, 24, and 48 hr postinjury. N = 4–6 mice per group.

P < .05 vs sham within time point.

^†

P < .05 vs 5 Gy within time point.

^‡

P < .05 vs burn within time point.

TNF, tumor necrosis factor.
