Figure 8

Poly(I:C)-induced type I and type III interferon gene expression is suppressed in SAECs exposed to multiple types of dung biomass smoke. SAECs were exposed to the indicated type of dung biomass smoke for 30 minutes and challenged with PI:C. RNA was isolated 6 hours post-PI:C treatment. (A-B) Interferon-β, (C-D) interferon-λ, and 18S RNA gene expression were assessed by qPCR. Data are expressed as mean ± SD (n=3 replicates per group from an independent experiment),*p<0.05 (Veh compared to PI:C) and #p<0.05 (Air compared to Dung Smoke) by two-way ANOVA using Sidak’s and Tukey’s post-hoc analyses.
