N-acetylcysteine decreases P3C-induced cytokine and chemokine release in CSF. P8 rats were injected i.p. with saline, P3C or P3C + NAC, and CSF was collected 14 h later. Cytokine concentrations measured by multiplex cytokine assay are presented in pg/ml as mean ± SEM (n = 7–9). * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01; *** p < 0.001; **** p < 0.0001, one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons test. Asterisks inside the bars show the comparison result between the treated and control group. Asterisks between bars show the comparison between P3C and P3C + NAC groups
