Figure Lengend Snippet: Effects of rTMS on neuroinflammation and the M1/M2 polarization state of microglia in vivo . (A–C) Elisa was used to examine the expression levels of IL-6, TNF-α and IL-10 expression level. (D–F) Real-time qRT-PCR analysis of the relative mRNA expression of TMEM119 , iNOS , and Arg1 in the DLPFC. (G, H) Immunofluorescence staining of Iba-1, M1-type (CD86) and M2-type (CD206) markers in the left PFC region. (I, J) Proportion of positive cells for target proteins. The number of samples in each group is 3. The results was analyzed with one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post-hoc test, *p < 0.05, **P < 0.01 and ***P < 0.001.
Article Snippet: Primary antibodies against CD86 (1:100; bs-1035r; Bioss), CD206 (1:100; #24595; CST) and Iba-1(1:100, ab283319, Abcam, Cambridge, UK)were applied, and the sections were incubated overnight at 4 °C.
