Fig. 4. Effects of LPS and p-CA on the hippocampal expression of inflammatory cytokines and BDNF (n=5/group). (A) Immunoblotting and band quantification of cycloxigenase-2. (B) Immunoblotting and band quantification of tumor necrosis factor-α. (C) Immunoblotting and band quantification of BDNF. Data are shown as mean±SEM. Control, saline+saline; LPS, saline+LPS 200 µg/kg; p-CA 50, p-CA 50 mg/kg+LPS 200 µg/kg; p-CA 75, p-CA 75 mg/kg+LPS 200 µg/kg; p-CA 100, p-CA 100 mg/kg+LPS 200 µg/kg. *p<0.05 versus control group and #p<0.05, ##p<0.01, ###p<0.001 versus LPS-treated group by ANOVA Scheffe post-hoc test.
