Figure 7From: Inflammation rapidly modulates the expression of ALDH1A1 (RALDH1) and vimentin in the liver and hepatic macrophages of rats in vivoRelative mRNA expression of vimentin in VAA and VAD diet rat liver. Vimentin mRNA in VAA (black bars) or VAD (grey bars) rats, determined by qRT-PCR. Normalized values were expressed as the mean ± SEM of n = 5 (n = 4 for VAD vehicle)/group, with the VAA control group set to 1.0. Diet was a significant main effect, P <0.01, and LPS treatment marginally increased vimentin mRNA expression, P = 0.062 compared to the VAA vehicle control group.Back to article page
