Effect of Orally Administered Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz Water Extract on Macrophage and T Cell Inflammatory Response in Mice

Figure 3

Effect of AME on the surface expression of costimulatory molecules in LPS-stimulated macrophages. Peritoneal macrophages isolated from the control and AME groups were stimulated with 100 ng/ml LPS for 24 h and then stained with PE-conjugated anti-CD86 antibody. (a) Representative histograms are shown. (b) Bars represent mean ± SEM (n=6). (-): without LPS, (+): LPS treatment. MFI: mean fluorescence intensity. # P<0.005 versus control (-), P<0.05 versus control (+).
