Effects of intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation on the expression of interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6 mRNA in the retina.
(A) Alterations in IL-1β mRNA content in the retina after IOP elevation (open circles) or after sham treatment (closed circles). (B) Alterations in IL-6 mRNA content in the retina after IOP elevation (open circles) or sham treatment (closed circles). Open triangles represent samples from eyes treated with10 μmol/L OxATP just after IOP elevation. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 4–5). The asterisks indicate significant differences from the sham control eyes (*) or from the eyes after IOP elevation (**; Mann-Whitney U-test, P < 0.05). From Sugiyama et al. (2013).
