Fig. 3From: Metallothionein ameliorates burn sepsis partly via activation of Akt signaling pathway in mice: a randomized animal studyThe mRNA expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in liver and lung of WT and MT (−/−) mice were detected by quantitative real-time PCR. Data were calculated using the 2-ΔΔCt method, where Ct is cycle threshold. n = 10 mice/group, *p < 0.01Back to article page
