Effect of PBR fractions on degranulation of IgE/Ag-stimulated RBL-2H3 cells. (a) Degranulation was determined by the amount of β-hexosaminidase released in IgE/Ag-stimulated RBL-2H3 cells. RBL-2H3 cells were treated in the presence or absence of PBR or PL (, vs. IgE/Ag-stimulated control). (b) Cell viability of RBL-2H3 cells was measured using the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. RBL-2H3 cells (2 × 104 cells/well) were treated in the presence or absence of PBR or PL fractions for 24 h. Each value represents the mean ± SD of three independent experiments. Data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA/Dunnett’s t-test (, vs. nontreated control). EA, ethyl acetate; BuOH, butanol.
