Figure 2. PPAR-γ expression in rat astrocytes and microglia.

Figure 2

(A and C) Gene expression was studied by RT-qPCR as described in Materials and Methods. No significant change in PPAR-γ mRNA levels was observed after 24 h of incubation with NDP-α-MSH in both cell types. (B and D) Protein expression of PPAR-γ was assessed by western blot after 24 h of treatment. NDP-α-MSH induced the expression of PPAR-γ protein in both cell types. Data were analyzed by one sample t Test and are expressed as mean ± SEM. *p<0.05 vs. control group.
