The Modulation of PPARγ1 and PPARγ2 mRNA Expression by Ciglitazone in CD3/CD28-Activated Naïve and Memory CD4+ T Cells

Figure 1

Proliferation assay. [3H] thymidine incorporation of naïve (CD45RA+) and memory (CD45RO+) CD4+ T cells following in vitro stimulation with CD3/CD28 beads, in the presence or absence of ciglitazone. Data are expressed as the mean cpm of triplicate cultures ± SEM. The experiments were repeated three times. Statistical analyses were performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test.* (for naïve CD4+ T cells) or # (for memory CD4+ T cells) of ciglitazone-treated, compared to untreated stimulated cells.
