Wild Bitter Melon Extract Regulates LPS-Induced Hepatic Stellate Cell Activation, Inflammation, Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress, and Ferroptosis
Figure 3
WM treatment induced ER stress, alleviated inflammation, and triggered ferroptosis in LPS-activated HSCs. (a) Changes in the expression levels of CHOP and p-JNK. β-Actin was used as an internal control. (b) Quantitative evaluation of the levels of specific proteins, assessed by ImageJ. All data are presented as the mean ± SD. n = 3, . (c) Changes in the expression levels of GPX4 and SLC7A11. β-Actin was used as an internal control. (d) Quantitative evaluation of the levels of specific proteins, assessed by ImageJ. All data are presented as the mean ± SD. n = 3, .
