Changes in the mRNA profiles of the liver after CBDL+CDL in TNF-α^−/− mice TNF-α^+/+ and TNF-α^−/− mice received CBDL+CDL.

<p>The animals were sacrificed 7 days after the surgery. mRNA levels of αSMA, desmin, and vimentin in the livers were determined by quantitative real time RT-PCR. Results are presented as means ± SD of data collected from at least 5 independent experiments.</p>*<p>P<0.05 versus sham-operated TNF-α^+/+ mice using a 2-tailed Student’s t-test.
