Effect of Cp-BF on inflammatory stomach lesions in HCl/EtOH-treated mice. ((a) and (b)) Mice administered orally with Cp-BF (200 mg/kg) or ranitidine (40 mg/kg) for 3 days were treated with HCl/EtOH delivered orally. After 1 h, gastric lesions in the stomach were photographed and measured with a ruler. Gastric lesions after treatment with inducer alone were set as 100%. (c) Phosphoprotein levels of IκBα from tissue lysates were determined using phosphospecific and total protein antibodies; β-actin was used as a control. ^∗∗𝑃<0.01 compared to control.
