Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Heat-Processed Artemisia capillaris Thunberg by Regulating IκBα/NF-κB Complex and 15-PGDH in Mouse Macrophage Cells
Figure 4
Effect of HPAC on NO and PGE2 production. RAW 264.7 cells treated with indicated concentrations of HPAC for 2 h followed by LPS for 24 h. (a) Western blot analysis of iNOS, COX-2, mPGES-1, 15-PGDH, and β-actin. Quantitative analysis of (b) iNOS, (d) COX-2, (e) mPGES-1, and (f) 15-PGDH expression relative to β-actin. (c) NO and (g) PGE2 production were determined by Griess assay and ELISA, respectively. DXM was used as a positive control. The data are presented as means ± SEM (n = 3). versus control group, , , and versus LPS group.
