Figure 8From: Activation of the transcription factor, nuclear factor kappa-B, during the estrous cycle and early pregnancy in the pigRelative mRNA abundance for NFKB subunits. Expression differences for endometrial NFKB1 (Top panel; day × status interaction, P < 0.01) and RELA (Lower panel; day × status effect, P = 0.017), in cyclic (light bars) and pregnant (dark bars) gilts. Relative abundance of mRNA was calculated from the quantitative RT-PCR analysis as described in Materials and Methods. Bars without common lowercase superscripts represent a statistical difference (P < 0.05) between day/status combinations. Relative mRNA units are presented as mean ± SEM.Back to article page
