LightCycler analysis of the effect of liposomal ATRA on MMP-9 and TIMP-1 mRNA. BAL cells from patient K.-H. K. were cultured for 3 days without and with ATRA at 5 × 10−6 M and mRNA levels for MMP-9 (A), TIMP-1 (B) and α-Enolase (C) were determined RT-PCR using cDNA amplification by LightCycler technology using SYBR-green fluorescence. Shown is one example out of three. (................. untreated; __________ Lip empty; …. Lip ATRA; ....... ATRA)
