Fig 1. Purified mouse SAA induces aortic SMC and J774 macrophage-like cells to express MMPs and inflammatory cytokines.

Fig 1

A) SMC prepared from C57BL/6 mouse aortas cultured for 3 days (n = 3) and B) J774 cells (90% confluent; n = 4) were incubated for 8 hours in the absence (control, Ctl) or presence of 50 μg/ml mouse SAA (SAA). qRT-PCR was performed using primers specific for the indicated genes. Values represent the mean ± SEM; *P<0.05; **P<0.01, ***P<0.001
