To determine whether the cytokine/chemokine expression profile of the infiltrating cells from reovirus 1/L-ALI/ARDS mice was modulated during curcumin treatment, RNA from infiltrating cells on days 5, 9, and 14 was evaluated for expression of key cytokines/chemokines including IL-6, IL-10, IFNγ, G/M-CSF, and MCP-1 via qRT-PCR (Fig. 7). This evidence concerns the gene IL10 and acute respiratory distress syndrome.
