Figure 5.
Expression of proinflammatory genes in ileum of male and female WT and Ostα-/-mice. RNA was isolated from the distal small intestine of individual mice (n = 4–5 per group) and used for real-time PCR analysis. The mRNA expression was normalized using cyclophilin. Mean values ± SEM are shown. Significant differences between genotypes for that age and sex were as follows: *P < .05, **P < 0.01.
