mRNA expression of the proinflammatory cytokine IL-1β and the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 determined by quantitative RT-PCR. IL-1β: stenotic kidney cortex (a), stenotic kidney medulla (b), contralateral kidney cortex (c), contralateral kidney medulla (d). IL-10: stenotic kidney cortex (e), stenotic kidney medulla (f), contralateral kidney cortex (g), contralateral kidney medulla (h). Groups: Sham (), Stenotic (), Stenotic+ASC (), Stenotic+MV (), and Stenotic+EX (). , , and (one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s posttest).
