RANKL expression in submandibular lymph nodes.
Rankl mRNA expression in submandibular lymph nodes was assessed by real-time PCR. Quantitative mRNA values were normalized to the amount of Gapdh. Bar graphs represent the mean values ± SD (n = 7). * p < 0.01, vs. without ligation. ** p < 0.01, vs. PBS treated. Lower panels are images of submandibular lymph nodes. Representative lymph nodes are shown.
