IL-6 | IL-8 | IL-10 | |
---|---|---|---|
CD-saline/RA | 1.00 ± 0.05 | 1.00 ± 0.07 | 1.00 ± 0.10 |
DHA-saline/RA | 0.91 ± 0.07 | 0.92 ± 0.08 | 0.97 ± 0.02 |
CD-LPS/O2 | 1.77 ± 0.51 | 0.96 ± 0.09 | 0.74 ± 0.07 |
DHA-LPS/O2 | 0.86 ± 0.07# | 1.04 ± 0.09 | 1.05 ± 0.08# |
Cytokines were measured by ELISA as described in methods. Data were normalized to the control diet-saline/room air (CD-saline/RA)-exposed group and analyzed by 2-way ANOVA with Tukey's multiple comparisons test post hoc. Values are means ± SE; n = 8–12 per group. An effect of diet is indicated with IL-6 levels elevated and IL-10 levels decreased in the CD-LPS/85% O2 (CD-LPS/O2)-exposed group.
P < 0.05, different from CD-LPS/O2. DHA, docosahexaenoic acid diet.
