Figure 6

IL-6 and IL-8 mRNA expression in NCI-H292 cells stimulated by LPS in the absence or presence of 5 μg/ml poly-L-arginine (A, B) or that of arginine (C, D). IL-6 and IL-8 mRNA levels were corrected for GAPDH mRNA. Typical experiments are shown (triplicate samples; mean ± SEM) of 4 (for poly-L-arginine) and 2 (for arginine) experiments for IL-6 as well as IL-8 mRNA. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 and ***P < 0.001 as compared to parallel samples in the absence of poly-L-arginine or presence of arginine.
