Fig 3

Systemic cytokines and chemokine including IL-6 (A), IL-12p70 (B), IL-13 (C), IL-18 (D) and GRO KC/CXCL-1 (E) were measured in the blood of the animals enrolled into the experimental groups [Control, BOP, and BOP with DAF treatment (designated as DAF)] at indicated time points by Luminex® 200™ using Bio-Plex Pro™ rat cytokine multiplex assay, and group data is expressed as mean ± SEM and compared using one-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni test. *, p<0.05, **, p<0.01, and ***, p<0.001 vs. Control. †† p<0.01 vs. BOP. n = 8 for all the groups except 48 h experimental samples (n = 5).
