A: Effects of the antioxidant Trolox C and the COX-1 inhibitors (SC-560 and VAS) on the expression of COX-1, COX-2, and mPGES-1 mRNAs in rat microglial cells stimulated with LPS. RT-PCR analysis was performed after 4 h of incubation with LPS. There are no significant effects of the COX-1 inhibitors on mPGES-1 expression as demonstrated by the semi-quantitative analysis shown in Panel B. Trolox C produced a moderate reduction in mPGES-1 expression that did not attain statistical significance. Semi-quantitative analysis was done with results from 3 different RT-PCR experiments performed independently. Relative expression of rat S12 was used for normalization.
