Expression of the monocyte chemoattractant protein 1
| Group | Muscle (human MCP-1) (pg/g) | Muscle (rat MCP-1) (pg/g) | Plasma(human MCP-1) (pg/ml) |
|---|---|---|---|
| We assessed protein expression levels of mMCP-1 three days after gene transfer in plasma and muscle of rats using an MCP-1 ELISA kit. | |||
| Values are means (SEM) (n = 5∼6). | |||
| Significant difference: **p<0.01, mMCP-1 treated group versus the empty plasmid treated group. | |||
| Empty plasmid (day 3) | <31.2 | 411.1 (22.3) | <31.2 |
| mMCP-1 (day 3) | 4480.8 (591.3)** | 337.9 (32.3) | <31.2 |
