Ex-vivo vessels culture at t3: A740003 effects on IL1β. IL-1β content in PL tissues and culture supernatants after treatment with A740003 at t3 are shown (A). IL-1β content in a subset of PLs which fragments were treated for 24 h (t1) and 72 h (t3) with A740003 are shown. Points with before–after connecting lines and letters indicate fragments from the same vessel. (B). Quantification of proIL-1β by OD densitometric analysis in PLs treated with A740003 at t3 (C, left) and a representative cropped western blot of P2X7-machinery (C, right) are shown. Densitometry of P2X7 isoforms at 75 kD and 54 kD in PLs treated with A740003 at t3 is in (D) with representative cropped western blot in the inset. Values displayed as boxes are presented with 5–95 percentile. Paired t-test is used; significant difference is shown as *p < 0.05.
