Figure 10

mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokines in IPEC-J2 cells. Effect of puerarin (200 μg/mL), baicalin (1 μg/mL), and berberine hydrochloride (100 μg/mL) on IL-1α (a), IL-6 (b), CXCL-2 (c), and PLAU (d) mRNA expression in IPEC-J2 cells infected with ETEC. Control: untreated cells; ETEC: treatment with ETEC for 3 h; puerarin: pretreatment with puerarin at 200 μg/mL + ETEC; baicalin: pretreatment with baicalin at 1 μg/mL + ETEC; berberine: pretreatment with berberine hydrochloride at 100 μg/mL + ETEC. Data are mean ± SEM, n = 3 per treatment (P < 0.05; P < 0.01).
