Car-triggered inflammation in hDPCs. hDPCs were treated with either 10 μM Car or PBS (as control) for 2 h. After lysis, the expressions of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α were assessed by (a) qPCR and (b) ELISA. Data are expressed as means ± standard deviations. Comparisons between two groups were analyzed by t-test. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
