Fig. 5From: The Regulation of Interleukin-8 by Hypoxia in Human Macrophages—A Potential Role in the Pathogenesis of the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)Hypoxia increases IL-8 mRNA expression in rabbit alveolar macrophages. Rabbit alveolar macrophages were exposed to normoxia (N), hypoxia (H) or LPS. Hypoxia significantly increased steady-state IL-8 mRNA expression compared to normoxic controls by 1 and 2 hours (A). A representative RT-PCR gel is shown (B).Back to article page
