Figure 8From: In utero and early life exposure to diesel exhaust air pollution increases adult susceptibility to heart failure in mice Effects of DE and TAC on lung weight and inflammatory cytokine expression. (A) Lung weights as measured at necropsy were collected and analyzed in FA/FA (n = 7 sham, n = 8 TAC), FA/DE (n = 3 sham, n = 3 TAC), DE/FA (n = 5 sham, n = 5 TAC) and DE/DE (n = 5 sham, n = 4 TAC) groups. Relative real-time PCR analysis of IL6 (B) and TNFα (C) mRNA content in the lung as expressed as negative delta delta CT from FA/FA sham normalized to GAPDH.Back to article page
