BAFF mRNA in the HSG cell line after stimulation by cytokines. (a) RT-PCR results showing expression of B cell-activating factor (BAFF) mRNA by the HSG cell line after 48 hours of stimulation with IL-10 (100 ng/ml), IFN-α (2,400 U/ml), IFN-γ (5 ng/ml), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α (1 ng/ml) and IFN-γ (5 ng/ml) + TNF-α (1 ng/ml). (b) Time course of induction of BAFF mRNA in the HSG cell line 9, 24, 48 and 72 hours after stimulation with IFN-γ (5 ng/ml). Error bars indicate SEM.
