Fig. 2. UVB irradiation increases the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in Jurkat T cells exposed to TGs.
Jurkat T cells were treated with TG (1.0 mg/mL) and irradiated with UVB (100 J/m2) for 24 h. (A) The mRNA level of TNF-α was analyzed using RT-PCR. (B) The mRNA level of IL-1β was analyzed using RT-PCR. (C) The mRNA level of INF-γ was analyzed using RT-PCR. GAPDH was used as internal control. Data are expressed as the mean ± SD and are presented as the expression levels of mRNA relative to GAPDH mRNA. The expression level of mRNA relative to GAPDH in Jurkat T cells without treatment TG and UVB was set as 1.0. Data are from three independent experiments. P-values were determined with Student's t-test. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01.
