Figure 2TNF-induced RANKL gene expression is mediated by IL-1. (
A and
C) VCAM-1–positive WT or IL-1RI–deficient (IL-1RI KO) murine marrow cells or (
B) hMSCs were exposed to designated cytokines or 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (10
–8 M) for 24 hours. In some circumstances TNF was added conjointly with IL-1Ra. RNA was extracted and subjected to RT-PCR. Numbers in parentheses represent concentrations in ng/ml.
