The RT-PCR analysis of mRNA expression for β-actin (A), IL-1β (B), TNF-α (C), and Hif1α (D) (a) in colonic mucosa of intact rats or untrained TNBS rats fed HFD or trained TNBS rats fed HDF or LDF and the semiquantitative ratio of IL-1β-, TNF-α-, and Hif1α mRNAs over β-actin mRNA (b). Results are mean ± SEM of 4 determinations. Asterisk indicates a significant change () as compared with the values obtained in intact colonic mucosa. Cross indicates a significant change () as compared with untrained rats fed with HFD.
