Table 1 Differences in NO, IL-6, and leptin amounts quantified between macrophage-containing transwell inserts and adipocyte-containing wells (average of all treatments)
Molecule | Average amount of molecule in transwell (macrophages) | Average amount of molecule in well (adipocytes) | Difference between transwell and well (matched pairs t test) |
|---|---|---|---|
NO (mM) | 7.2 ± 1.0 | 6.0 ± 1.0 | p = 0.26 |
IL-6 (pg/ml) | 1172.2 ± 122.0 | 1115.76 ± 122.0 | p = 0.65 |
Leptin (pg/ml) | 478.2 ± 47.5 | 627.1 ± 47.5 | p = 0.004* |
