From: Oyster crude polysaccharides attenuates lipopolysaccharide-induced cytokines production and PPARγ expression in weanling piglets

Group	IL-1β	IL-6	TNF-α
Blank control	12.50 ± 2.80^b	2.14 ± 0.06^c	81.55 ± 5.50^c
LPS control	32.62 ± 12.53^a	2.48 ± 0.09^a	166.65 ± 20.88^a
Low OPS	11.68 ± 3.27^b	2.09 ± 0.13^c	77.62 ± 7.82^c
Medium OPS	11.03 ± 2.06^b	2.02 ± 0.07^c	86.14 ± 3.83^c
High OPS	12.14 ± 2.55^b	2.34 ± 0.06^b	107.85 ± 6.61^b

Different letters in the same rank represent significant difference between the treatments (P < 0.05), while the same letter in the same rank means no significant difference between the treatments (P > 0.05). The units for IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in the table (pg/ml)
