Expression of mRNA for TNF-α in macrophages cultured with LPS+hydrogen saline(40 μl was added in each well), LPS+saline and LPS. Cytokine's relative concentration is expressed as means ± SE. *P < 0.05 VS. LPS+saline group. The hydrogen saline had the effect of downregulating TNF-α mRNA. HS = hydrogen saline.
