Effects of Escin on Oxidative Stress and Apoptosis of H9c2 Cells Induced by H2O2

Figure 5

Escin inhibited the NF-κB pathway. (a) In the H2O2 treatment group, the expression of p65 and IκKα increased, and the expression of IκB-α decreased. In the H2O2+escin group, the expression of p65 and IκKα decreased, and the expression of IκB-α increased. (b) Statistical results of protein level of p65 ( vs. control; # vs. H2O2, ). (c) Statistical results of protein level of IκKα ( vs. control; # vs. H2O2, ). (d) Statistical results of protein level of IκB-α ( vs. control; # vs. H2O2, ). (e) Expression of p65 mRNA in three groups ( vs. control; # vs. H2O2, ). (f) Expression of IκKα mRNA in three groups ( vs. control; # vs. H2O2, ). (g) Expression of IκB-α mRNA was consistent with the results of Western blot ( vs. control; # vs. H2O2, ).
