IL-1β in combination with OSM stimulates expression of MMP3 (a) and MMP13 (b) in ELAC pellets culture. ELAC pellets were treated with IL-1β or TNF-α, alone or in combination with OSM, for 3 days. The mRNA levels were assessed by real-time RT-PCR. Results are presented as mean ± SEM. * signifies statistical significance compared with control (*p < 0.05), whereas # signifies statistical significance in relation to single-cytokine treatment (#p < 0.05)
