Fig. 9. Changes in mWap65-1 and mWap65-2 mRNA levels in liver from adult medaka following i.p. injection of LPS. (A) Northern blot analysis for three groups each containing three individuals following injection of either LPS or saline. Lanes 1–3 and 4–6 contained 20 µg of total RNAs from fish on days 2 and 4 after LPS injection, respectively, whereas lanes 7–9 and 10–12 contained those on days 2 and 4 after saline injection, respectively. (B) The transcriptional levels of mWap65-1 and mWap65-2 relative to those of ß-actin. RNA blots were quantified using a Fujix BAS 1000 densitometer. Relative mRNA levels are compared to those of ß-actin for the same sample; values are means ± S.D.
