From: Adiponectin and adiponectin receptor 1 overexpression enhance inflammatory bowel disease
The expression of inflammatory markers in a colon epithelial cell line (HT-29 cells). HT-29 cells were treated with 1 μg/mL lipopolysaccharides (LPS) or 5 μg/mL full length adiponectin (ADN) for 18 h. a the relative mRNA expression of cox2. b the PGE2 secretion to the culture medium. c the relative mRNA expression of IL-8. d the IL-8 secretion to the culture medium. Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA with mean separation using Tukey’s test. Each bar represents the mean ± SEM; a value of p ≤ 0.05 was considered significant. *** means p ≤ 0.0005, **** means p ≤ 0.0001
