Equisetum arvense Inhibits Alveolar Bone Destruction in a Rat Model with Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-Induced Periodontitis

Figure 5

Effects of EA on the LPS induced downregulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in ST2. (a) E. coli-LPS (1 μg/mL) is applied to ST2 cells and collected at several time points. β-Catenin in ST2 cells is analyzed by Western blotting. β-actin is used as a loading control. (b) E. coli-LPS (1 μg/mL) and/or EA; Equisetum arvense extract (3 μg/mL) are treated in ST2 cells for 10 hours on ST2 cells. β-Catenin in ST2 cells is analyzed by Western blotting. β-actin is used as the loading control.
