The mRNA expression levels of various proteins involved in macrophage oxidative burst in various experimental groups (B: only beads, LPS+B (beads), LPS+PrxB (peroxidase coated beads).

<p>After 24 h of corresponding experimental conditions, total RNA was isolated and amplified using proteins mRNA specific primers (panel A). The relative mRNA expression is represented in the ratio of densitometric values of mRNAs to β-actin. The mRNA levels of all proteins except Cu-Zn Sod were significantly down regulated after Prx treatment (level of significance signifies comparison between LPS+B and LPS+PrxB; NS = not significant).
