Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is up-regulated in dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis. (A) Interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) mRNA expressions in colon specimens were assessed using real-time polymerase chain reaction (n = 5 per group). Data were normalized to the expression of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) mRNA. (B) CD11b+ cells, isolated from the lamina propria in the dextran sodium sulfate-treated mice and untreated mice, were cultured with 10 ng/mL lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The production of TNF-α was measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Data were presented as the mean of the three independent experiments.
