(a, b) Effects of SIE on the arachidonate signaling pathways in the RBL-2H3 mast cells. In the arachidonate signaling pathway, immunoblot analysis was performed by using anti-COX-2 and p-cPLA2 antibodies. β-Actin was used as a protein loading control. Results are expressed as of at least five independent experimental results, tested by analysis of variance using Bonferroni’s post hoc test; considered as indicative of significant differences versus the control group and , , and as indicative of significant differences versus the IgE/Ag-treated group.
