Bindarit administration alleviates periodontal inflammation in DP mice. a The levels of various inflammatory cytokines in the periodontium of bindarit-treated and vehicle-treated DP mice on day 28 after ligature removal were analyzed by LEGENDplexTM bead-based immunoassays (n = 6 per group). Error bars indicate SEM. *p < 0.05 (unpaired two-tailed Student’s t test). b The mRNA expression levels of inflammatory cytokines in the periodontium of each group on day 28 after ligature removal were analyzed by RT-qPCR (n = 6 per group). Error bars indicate SEM. *p < 0.05 (unpaired two-tailed Student’s t test). c IL-1β and TNF-α expression levels in the periodontium of each group on day 28 after ligature removal were measured by IF staining. Nuclei were stained with DAPI. Scale bar = 25 μm. d IL-1β and TNF-α levels in the periodontium of each group (n = 6 per group) on day 28 after ligature removal were measured by western blotting. *p < 0.05 (unpaired two-tailed Student’s t test).
