Role of Lysosomes in Silica-Induced Inflammasome Activation and Inflammation in Absence of MARCO

Figure 5

Pro-IL-1β mRNA expression in WT and MARCO ^−/− AM analyzed using RT-PCR. White bars indicate WT AM and grey bars indicate MARCO^−/− AM. Fold change in pro-IL-1β expression was compared to unstimulated control. The data represent one experiment with 2 replications.
