Effects of galangin on chemokine and adhesion molecule messenger (m)RNA expression.

Notes: Eight hours after injection of Concanavalin A, liver RNA from mice was obtained and mRNA expression levels of (A) IP-10, (B) MIP-1α, and (C) ICAM-1 were quantitatively analyzed by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Results are representative of three experiments. *P<0.05, **P<0.01.

Abbreviations: IP-10, IFN-inducible protein-10; MIP-1α, macrophage inflammatory protein-1 alpha; ICAM-1, intercellular adhesion molecule-1.
