In accordance, TF mRNA levels in lung tissue were significantly increased after endotoxemia (1.8 ± 0.1 vs. 1.4 ± 0.3, p < 0.02; Figure 3A), whereas the levels in other organs such as the heart (0.07 ± 0.03, Figure 3B) remained at a level comparable to controls (0.10 ± 0.03, p > 0.1) as expected. The gene discussed is TF; the disease is serum lipopolysaccharide activity.
