Figure 1.
Systemic levels of LTB4 and cytokines in diabetic 5LO−/− or WT mice. Plasma was collected from WT or 5LO−/− mice, healthy or diabetic (T1D), for LTB4 dosage by ELISA (A). Serum from mice was collected for cytokine dosage by CBA: TNF-α (B), IL-6 (C), IL-10 (D) IL-12p70 (E) and IFN-γ (F). Data are presented as the mean ± SEM of 4 to 6 animals per group. *p ≤ 0.05 when diabetic groups were compared to healthy WT, and #p ≤ 0.05 when diabetic 5LO−/− mice were compared to diabetic WT. ULD = under the limit of detection.
