Early pro-inflammatory cytokine elevations in the DBA/2J mouse model of glaucoma

Table 1 Summary of group nomenclature and N values

Strain	Age	Group nomenclature	Mice per group (N)	Projections analyzed (n)
D2G	3–5 months	D2G^a	4	8
D2G	12–15 months	D2G^a	4	6
DBA/2J	3–5 months	D3–5	5	10
DBA/2J	8–10 months	D8–10	6	12
DBA/2J	12–15 months	D12–15	5	10

^aYoung and old D2G mice were combined into a single control group in order to simplify results when possible; independent samples t tests indicated that young and old D2G mice showed few differences in their cytokines levels. When detected, differences were described within the results section using G3–5 and G12–15 (referring to young and old D2G mice, respectively)
