(B,C) Quantitative analysis of reverse transcriptase PCR. (D) Western blots of iNOS and COX2 at 24 h in normal, vehicle-treated, BV-treated, and Col-treated rats (n = 3/group). (E) Quantitative analyses of western blots. (F) Immunohistochemistry for iNOS and COX2 in synovium tissue of ankle. Scale bar, 50 μm.
