Expression of proinflammatory mediators and receptors in macrophages treated with fatty acids and challenged with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). (A–N) Relative expression levels of FFAR1, FFAR2, FFAR3, AMPKα, COX-2, TLR2, AhR, TNFα, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, CCL2, and CCL5 mRNA, respectively, in macrophages. MΦ: control group (macrophages alone); MΦOA, MΦPA, and MΦOA/PA: macrophages treated with OA, PA, or FAs (OA/PA), respectively; MΦLPS: positive control (macrophages exposed to LPS); MΦLPSOA, MΦLPSPA, and MΦLPSOA/PA: macrophages challenged with LPS and treated with OA, PA, or FAs (OA/PA), respectively. The results were obtained from three independent experiments.
