Changes in TGFβ and related genes in LPS-stimulated HSCs.

<p>(A) Microarray data show LPS-induced changes in the indicated transcripts in HSCs. For clarity control gene expression at 1 and 24h is offset to 0.5h and 24.5h respectively. (B) qPCR data showing mRNA expression of the indicated molecules at 24h following stimulation with 10 ng/ml LPS. The numbers are p values form 3 separate determinations from different batches of HSCs. Statistical significance was derived from student’s <i>t</i>-test using Microsoft-excel program.
