Figure 1. Expression of the mRNAs of cytokines and chemokines by HCEs exposed to poly(I:C), a TLR3 ligand. Total RNA was isolated from HCECs at 6, 12, and 24 h after poly(I:C) exposure, and the expressions of the mRNAs of MIP1-α, MIP1-β, IL-6, IL-8, RANTES, and IFN-β were determined by real-time PCR. The relative level of expression of each cytokine and chemokine mRNA is normalized to the level of G3PDH mRNA expression. The p values were calculated using two-tailed paired t-tests, (*p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001).
