From: Repeated social defeat promotes persistent inflammatory changes in splenic myeloid cells; decreased expression of β-arrestin-2 (ARRB2) and increased expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6)

Myeloid cells from the spleen. a Fold expression of β2-adrenergic receptor (ADRB2) in the stress-exposed rats versus control rats, p = 0.02. b Fold expression of β-arrestin 2 (ARRB2) in stress-exposed rats versus control rats, p = 0.007. c The relationship between IL-6 and ARRB2 expression levels, r = 0.509, p = 0.022. d Fold expression of interleukin 6 (IL-6) in the stress-exposed rats versus control rats, p = 0.02. All data were normalized to the mean of hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT) and protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type C (PTPRC) and then to the baseline. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, Students t-test
