Fig 6. Brain inflammatory cytokines were modestly increased with 9 month airborne particulate matter exposure.
Brains of 9 month exposed filtered air (FA) or PM2.5 (PM) mice were collected with the left hemisphere fixed for immunohistochemistry and the right temporal cortices collected for biochemical analysis. A. Temporal cortex lysates from FA and PM brains were used for antibody-based commercial cytokine array analysis. A representative array is shown. B. The optical densities for each cytokine were averaged (+/-SD).
