The effect of TLR4 signaling inhibition on cytokine expression in L31 mice. In the prevention paradigm (a–e), real-time quantitative PCR showed a significantly reduced expression of pro-inflammatory molecules a IFN-γ, b TNF-α, c IL-6, and d IL-1β, in the TAk 242-treated group. e The mRNA expression of the anti-inflammatory molecule, IL-10 was significantly enhanced in the treated group. In the reversal paradigm (f–j), the mRNA expression levels of f IFN-γ, g TNF-α, h IL-6, and i IL-1β, in the peripheral nerve were significantly reduced by TAK 242 treatment. j The mRNA level of IL-10 was unchanged across both groups in the reversal paradigm. n = 6/group; *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001
