PDYN overexpression inhibited pilocarpine-induced TLR4/NF-κB pathway in a rat model of epilepsy. a The serum levels of M1-related pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and IL-6) and M2-related cytokines (IL-4 and IL-10) in rats were examined by ELISA. b The protein levels of TLR4, IκB-α, p-IκB-α, NF-κB p65, and p-NF-κB p65 were examined by western blot. n = 8/group. **p < 0.01, vs. Control group, ##p < 0.01, vs. LV-NC group
