A. ARPE19 cells were transfected with LCN2 in pcDNA3 vector. These cells were cultured with 1 μg/ml of LPS for 24 h, and cell viability was examined using WST-1 assay. Error bars indicate S.D. of the means, n=3, *p < 0.05. B.
LCN2 expression in transfected ARPE19 cells was quantified by qRT-PCR. Error bars indicate S.D. of the means, n=3, *p < 0.05.
