Fig 2. Nef expression in the rat hippocampus increases IL-1β levels in blood.
Analysis of IL-1β levels in serum by quantitative ELISA showed that Nef-treated rats had significantly increased levels compared to those treated with GFP. N = 9 rats per group. Student’s t-test was performed to determine differences between the Nef-treated group and the GFP-treated group (control). Error bars represent the means ± S.E.M.
