Effects of RGAP and LPS on production of NO and morphological changes. (a, b, and d) Levels of NO were determined by Griess assay from culture supernatants of RAW264.7 cells treated with RGAP and LPS (1 μg/mL) for 24 h. (c) Morphological changes in RAW264.7 cells treated with LPS (1 μg/mL), RGAP (2 mg/mL), and IL-4 (20 ng/mL). Images were taken by a digital camera. ^#𝑃<0.05 and ^##𝑃<0.01 compared to normal and *𝑃<0.05 and **𝑃<0.01 compared to control.
