Inhibition of Inflammatory Response by Artepillin C in Activated RAW264.7 Macrophages

Figure 5

Effect of artepillin C on cytokines production in LPS + IFN-𝛾 stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages: (a) IL-1α, (b) IL-1β, (c) IL-3, (d) IL-4, (e) IL-5, (f) IL-6, (g) IL-9, (h) IL-10, (i) IL-12p40, (j) IL-13, (k) IL-17, (l) TNF-α, (m) IFN-γ, (n) G-CSF, (o) GM-CSF, (p) MCP-1, (q) MIP-1α, (r) MIP-1β, (s) RANTES, (t) KC. RAW264.7 cells were incubated with of 50–100 μM artepillin C and/or LPS + IFN-γ for 24 h. Cytokine concentrations in the culture medium were determined by Multiplex (20-plex) bead-based cytokine assay. The values represent mean ± SD of two independent experiments (𝑛=8) *𝑃<0.05, **𝑃<0.01, ***𝑃<0.001 compared to LPS + IFN-γ-stimulated cells.
