Paclitaxel and TNF-α induce different expression of cytokines in cultured astrocytes. a, b Quantitative transcriptional analyses of GFAP, glutamate transporters (GLAST and GLT-1), and cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β) and chemokines in cultured astrocytes after exposure to vehicle control (24 h), paclitaxel (6 h and 24 h), or TNF-α (24 h) (*P < 0.05 compared to vehicle, t test, n = 4–5 per group). c TNF-α expression, revealed by ELISA analysis, in primary cultures of astrocytes after exposure to paclitaxel (6 h and 24 h) (*P < 0.05 compared to vehicle, t test, n = 4 per group)
