Effects of intravasal LPS (25 μg) or LTA (125 μg) treatment on the mRNA levels of anti-inflammatory genes in the cauda epididymis. (a,b) Relative quantification of Il10, Il4 and Nfkbia transcripts by qPCR in the cauda epididymis from saline-control, LPS- or LTA-treated rats euthanized 6 h or 24 h after treatment. Samples were normalized to their internal control (Ppia) and expressed as relative values of their respective saline-control groups. Asterisks indicate statistically different from saline-control group (p < 0.05, Student’s t test). Results are expressed as mean ± SEM of experiments performed in duplicate with samples from six rats per group in (a) and five (24-h saline-control) or six (6-h and 24-h saline-control, 6-h and 24-h LTA) rats per group in (b).
