Regulated genes encoding for various cytokines or their receptors at different time-points after blunt chest trauma. Upregulation was defined as >2-fold increase of gene expression, while downregulation was considered significant when expression levels <0.5 when being compared to sham lungs. LCR-1 leucocyte chemokine receptor, TNFα tumor necrosis factor α. Displayed are mean values ± SEM
