Figure 5.
Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis of biological markers of inflammation: interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, IL-10, and cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant (CINC)-1. Data are presented as a box plot. Lines denote the median and boxes delimit the 25th and 75th percentiles of 7 animals per group. Relative gene expression was calculated as a ratio of the average gene expression levels compared with the reference gene (36B4) and expressed as fold change relative to NV. *Significantly different from NV group (p < 0.05). #Significantly different from VV0 group (p < 0.05).
