Figure 8From: The formyl peptide receptor like-1 and scavenger receptor MARCO are involved in glial cell activation in bacterial meningitis Increased CAMP (human) expression in transfected HEK293 cells. For analysis of CAMP mRNA expression, untransfected (A) or hMARCO- (B), hFPRL1- (C), and hFPRL1/hMARCO- (D) expressing HEK293 cells were treated with Neisseria meningitidis (NM), Streptococcus pneumoniae (SP) or 1 μM fMLF for 0, 6, 12 and 24 h. mRNA expression was analyzed using TaqMan real-time RT-PCR and results were compared to the untreated sample. 18 s (housekeeping gene) was used as an internal control. The data was assessed from three independent experiments.Back to article page
