Figure 5From: Positional differences in the wound transcriptome of skin and oral mucosaDifferential response of skin and mucosal keratinocytes to IL-1β treatment. Primary skin and oral mucosal keratinocytes isolated from adult human were treated with recombinant human IL-1β for 24 hours. Relative mRNA expression (fold change) of IL-6 and TNF-α compared to medium treated cells was determined by real time PCR. * p < 0.01 between skin and mucosal keratinocytes for IL-6 and TNF-α (n = 3).Back to article page
