Figure 6. Effects of the CM on inflammatory gene expression.
Total cytosolic RNA was prepared from the control, or microglial cells treated with C-CM or LI-CM for different times, and used for real-time Q-PCR analysis of different inflammatory genes, (A) CD86, (B) TNFα, (C) IL-1β, (D) TGFβ, (E) arginase I,ARG and (F) IL-10. Data are expressed as fold change versus control, taken as calibrator for comparative quantitation analysis of mRNA levels. Each sample was measured in triplicate, the experiment was repeated two times with similar results. Data are means±S.E.M., and were analyzed by two-way ANOVA followed by the Bonferroni's post hoc test. ***, P<0.001, **P<0.01, *P<0.05 versus control; °°°P< 0.001, °P<0.05 versus C-CM.
