We also analyzed the mRNA expression levels of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory genes, including Il1b (encodes IL-1β), Tnfa (TNF-α), Il6 (IL-6), Ccl2 (MCP-1), Il13 (IL-13), Il10 (IL-10), and Tgfb1 or 2 or 3 (TGF-β) in renal tissues following acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in the three groups of rats. This evidence concerns the gene TNF and acute myocardial infarction.
