From: Psychological stress in adolescent and adult mice increases neuroinflammation and attenuates the response to LPS challenge

Figure 7

RT-PCR analysis of inflammation-related genes reveals qualitatively different response to PS in mouse midbrain. Mice were subjected to acute PS or remained in their home cage (control). 1 hr after acute PS, midbrain was dissected and examined for potential changes in inflammation. Samples were pooled together from 8 mice per genotype and run as n = 2 for both control and stressed mice. Mice subjected to stress show a > 2-fold increase in inflammatory factor gene expression presented in red text and > 2-fold decrease in inflammatory factors (green text) compared to control mice.
