Fig. 2From: Supplement of 5-hydroxytryptophan before induction suppresses inflammation and collagen-induced arthritisEffects of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) on the expression of T-bet and RORγt in activated splenocytes. Splenocytes were treated with 5-HTP and stimulated with anti-CD3 plus anti-CD28 Abs. a mRNA levels (mean ± SD) of T-bet and RORγt. b Western blotting for T-bet and RORγt. exp 1 and exp 2 experiment 1 and 2. *Significant compared with no 5-HTP treatment. Multiple comparisons were performed using the Kruskal–Wallis test, if significant (p <0.05), then the Duncan test was used to find out which pairs were differentBack to article page
