Figure 4

Relative expression of IL1β mRNA (a) and IL6 mRNA (b) in rat hind paw. Carrageenan (Car) injection (filled bars) significantly elevated IL1β mRNA and IL6 mRNA levels compared to saline (Sal) injection (open bars) (). BEL slightly but significantly elevated carrageenan-induced IL1β mRNA () and did not affect carrageenan-induced IL6 mRNA.
