RT-PCR array in mRNA samples from thymocytes untreated and treated with CPS for 60 min. The expression levels were normalized using the housekeeping gene GAPDH and calculated by the ∆∆Ct method. Data, shown as fold change, represent the mean ± SD of three experiments. Untreated thymocyte mRNA was used as calibrator. *p < 0.01 vs untreated cells.
