From: Lipopolysaccharide modulates astrocytic S100B secretion: a study in cerebrospinal fluid and astrocyte cultures from rats

Figure 1

LPS induces increased levels of S100B in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), but not in serum. Intracerebroventricular injection of LPS, or saline solution, was carried out in adult Wistar rats under anaesthesia. After 30 min or 24 h, cerebrospinal fluid was collected by magna puncture (A) and blood by intracardic puncture (B). The control group is represented by grey bars and the LPS-treated group is represented by open bars. Each value is a mean (± standard error) from 5 rats per group. Intraperitoneal infusion of LPS, or saline solution, was carried out in adult Wistar rats under anaesthesia. After 30 min or 24 h, CSF was collected by magna puncture (C) and blood by intracardic puncture (D). The control group is represented by grey bars and the LPS-treated group is represented by open bars. Each value is a mean (± standard error) from 5 rats per group. * Significantly different from respective control (Student t test, p < 0.05).
