Matrine Attenuates COX-2 and ICAM-1 Expressions in Human Lung Epithelial Cells and Prevents Acute Lung Injury in LPS-Induced Mice

Figure 7

Matrine affects the expressions of cytokines, chemokines, and inflammatory mediators in the lung. Gene expressions were determined using real-time RT-PCR. Fold expression levels were measured relative to β-actin expression (internal control). Data are presented as mean ± SEM. compared with LPS control mice. compared with LPS control mice.
