Effects of early maternal immune activation (MIA) on cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α) in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and hippocampus (HC) regions of MIA rat offspring during adolescence and adulthood. Overall, most of these cytokines behaved in region- and age-related manners. Data are shown as mean ± SEM; n = 8 for Poly I:C group, n = 7 for vehicle group. a–c Concentrations (pg/mg) of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in the PFC during adolescence and adulthood. d–f Concentrations (pg/mg) of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in the HC during adolescence and adulthood. *P < 0.05
