Acetate reduces cytokine mRNA expressions in lung tissues in LPS-induced ALI: (A) TNF-α, (B) IL-1b, (C) IL-6, (D) CXCL-1, (E) CCL-2, and (F) COX-2. The values presented are mean ±SEM (n=10), #
P<0.05, ##
P<0.01 versus the control group; *P < 0.05 versus the LPS-treated group. LPS – lipopolysaccharide, ALI – acute lung injury; TNF – tumor necrosis factor; IL – interleukin; SEM – standard error measurement.
