Analysis of the TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β mRNA expression levels in mice brain tissues by qRT-PCR. (a) the mRNA expression of TNF-α in middle-aged P. gingivalis infected mice was increased; (b) P. gingivalis infection increased the mRNA levels of IL-6 in middle-aged mice; (c) the mRNA expression levels of IL-1β were increased in middle-aged P. gingivalis infected mice when compared to the control group. “**” indicates statistical significant difference (P < 0.01) between P. gingivalis infected mice and the corresponding control group
