Inhibitory effect of AAE on LPS-induced iNOS and COX-2 expression in RAW264.7 murine macrophages. (a) Western blot analysis of iNOS and COX-2 expression in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells after 24 h of treatment with AAE in different concentrations; (b) quantitation was analyzed by ImageJ 1.53a (NIH, USA). The ratio of the relative intensity of iNOS or COX-2 to tubulin is expressed; CON : control, LPS : lipopolysaccharide.
