TNFα and CAMP expression levels were significantly lower in Calcitriol-treated HepG2 HepG2.2.15 as compared with HepG2 cells. HepG2.2.15 and HepG2 cells were treated with 10 nM Calcitriol or EtOH, as a control. 24 h later, the cells were harvested and TNFα (a) and CAMP (b) levels were measured by RT-PCR. (p = 0.023 and p = 0.0373, respectively). Results are expressed as mean ± standard deviation
