Figure 6

Effect of etanercept (ETA) on NOS activity. Pregnant rats (gd 15) were injected with LPS alone (50 pg g−1) (shown as control) or with 0.7 ng Stx2 and 50 pg LPS g−1 (shown as Stx2) and killed 12 h post-injection. Some animals were treated with etanercept (i.p., 100 μg g−1) 6 h before toxin treatment. NOS activity in placenta was quantified by measuring the conversion of L-[14C]arginine to L-[14C] citrulline. Data corresponding to at least two separate experiments are shown. Values are expressed as the mean ± SEM (n = 6). **P < 0.01 versus control.
