The TrkA/Akt pathway was involved in the anti-inflammatory effects of DHEA in microglia. a, c JMJD3, TrkA/phosphorylated TrKA (pTrkA), Akt/pAkt and iNOS protein expression were analysed by WB (n = 3, one-way ANOVA). b mRNA levels of TNF-α, IL-10 and Tgf-β1 were analysed by qPCR (n = 3, one-way ANOVA). Eth., ethanol, DMSO, dimethyl sulfoxide. ns, not significant, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
