Figure Lengend Snippet: In vivo chondrogenesis of hydrogels incorporated with different combinations of PSF and KSF. (a) Alcian blue and Safranin O staining of different combinations after 21-day implantation. G1: 5 % β-sheet PSF +5 % β-sheet KSF; G2: 15 % β-sheet PSF +30 % β-sheet KSF; G3: 30 % β-sheet PSF +40 % β-sheet KSF; G4: 40 % β-sheet PSF +50 % β-sheet KSF. Scale bar = 200 μm. (b–d) Quantitative analysis of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α surrounding defect cartilage 1 week and 3 weeks after operation. (e, f) Macroscopic and MRI observations of rat femoral condyles at week 6 and 12. Red circles and red arrows show the original defect zone under macroscope and MRI respectively. Scale bar = 1 mm. (g) Relative ratio of average optical density (versus G1) that shows the staining intensity of Alcian blue and Safranin O staining. (h) ICRS scoring of macroscopic evaluations. (i) The repaired cartilage using a nanoindentation instrument. Scale bar = 1 cm. (j, k) Reduced modulus and hardness of the regenerated cartilage. ∗p < 0.05; ∗∗p < 0.01; ∗∗∗p < 0.001; ∗∗∗∗p < 0.0001.

Article Snippet: The suspension was centrifuged at 10,000 rpm for 10 min at 4 °C, and the supernatant was collected, and Elisa assay was performed following the manufacturer's instructions for rat IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α ELISA kits (Elabscience, China).

Article Title: Water intake regulates mucosal immunity in rat jejunal villi via IL ‐1β, IL ‐6, and IL ‐10

doi: 10.14814/phy2.70891

Figure Lengend Snippet: (a) Effects of water intake on changes in lymph volume collected over set intervals of 60 min in rat jejunum‐originated lymph vessels. (b) Effects of water intake on changes in the concentration of IL‐1β in the lymph. (c) Effects of water intake on changes in the concentration of IL‐6 in the lymph. (d) Effects of water intake on changes in the concentration of IL‐10 in the lymph. The open column, control; the black column, water intake. The error bars represent SDs.

Article Snippet: The concentrations of cytokines in the lymph were measured using enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits: a rat IL‐1β ELISA quantitative kit (catalog no. RLB00; R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA), an IL‐6 ELISA kit (catalog no. R6000B; R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA), and a mouse/rat IL‐10 ELISA kit (catalog no. KE20003; Rosemont, IL, USA) (Arai et al., ).
