NLRP3 and pro-IL-1β mRNA levels were significantly elevated in the mouse diencephalon after LPS/swim treatment. NLRP3 mRNA levels (a) and pro-IL-1β mRNA levels (b) were calculated using the ΔΔCt method, ΔΔCt = target group (CT of target genes − CT of GADPH) − control group (CT of target genes − CT of GADPH), and data were expressed as fold change (n = 4–6). **p < 0.01
