Fig 2. IL-1 mRNA and protein levels in response to R+G+, and distribution in MMs.

Fig 2

(A) R+G+ increased mRNA expression of IL-1β (but not of IL-1α) in WT-MMs. WT mice were subjected to 1 h of R+G- or R+G+, and IL-1α and IL-1β mRNA expression in MMs was analyzed via qPCR (n = 6–8). Experimental values are given as the mean ± SE. *P < 0.05. (B) R+G+ increased the level of IL-1α and β protein in MMs. WT mice were subjected to 1 h of R-G-, R+G- or of R+G+, and the IL-1α and β proteins in their MMs were analyzed via ELISA. Experimental values are given as the mean ± SE (n = 10–15).
