Figure 2

Serum and lavage fluid TNF-𝛼 levels in different groups of rats. NS: normal rats injected with saline; NL: normal rats injected with LPS; SS: STZ-treated rats injected with saline; SL: STZ-treated rats injected with LPS; U.D.: undetectable. Data are expressed as mean ± S.E.M (𝑛=8). ^∗𝑃<0.05, compared with the NS group; ^†𝑃<0.05, compared with the NL group; ^§𝑃<0.05, compared with the SS group (one-way ANOVA).
