The Anti-Inflammatory Effect of Smilax china L. Extract on LPS-Stimulated THP-1 via Downregulation of MAPK and NF-κB Signaling Pathway

Figure 9

Effect of ES on the NF-κB signaling pathway in LPS-induced THP-1 cells. Cells were treated with ES (12.5, 25, and 50 μg/mL) for 1 h then incubated with or without LPS (1 μg/mL) for 1 h. Protein expression was tested by Western blot ( versus the blank control group; and versus the LPS-treated group).
