Fig. 2. Relative mRNA expression profile of proinflammatory cytokines in splenocytes treated with LPS as mitogen in CP-induced immunosuppressed mice. (A) TNF-α; (B) IL-6; (C) IL-1β. NC, normal control; SC, sham control; PC, positive control; L-200655, live 200655 lactic acid bacteria; D-200655, dead 200655 lactic acid bacteria. Values with different letters within a row are significantly different at p < 0.05, as determined by Duncan’s multiple range test. Values from small to large are arranged in alphabetical order.
