(a) Western blot of IKKβ, p-IKKβ, and NF-κB p65 proteins in KCs. A: normal group; B: model group; C: L-SLG; D: H-SLG; E: L-ISG; F: H-ISG; G: L-IG; H: H-IG. (b) Expression of IKKβ, p-IKKβ, and NF-κB p65 proteins in KCs. Rats were fed with normal chow diet or HFD with or without CSS and SLBZS for 26 weeks. The values were expressed as mean ± S.E.M. 6 rats per group. < 0.01 versus normal group; < 0.05, < 0.01 versus model group; < 0.01 versus L-SLG, H-SLG, L-ISG, H-IS, and L-IG.
