Effect of LPS and SAMe treatment on serum ALT levels and hepatic mRNA levels of cytokines. (a) Serum ALT levels were measured as described in ‘Materials and Methods’. *P<0.001 vs control group, P<0.01 vs LPS group, n=4–14 per group. (b) Hepatic TNFα mRNA levels were measured using real-time PCR as described in ‘Materials and Methods’. (c) Hepatic interleukin (IL)-1β mRNA levels were measured using real-time PCR. (d) Hepatic iNOS and IL-10 mRNA levels were measured using real-time PCR. SAMe pretreatment group is labeled SAMe+LPS and SAMe post-treatment group is labeled LPS+SAMe. For cytokine mRNA levels, *P<0.01 vs control group and **P<0.05 vs control group, P<0.05 vs LPS group, n=4–8 per group.
