Anti-Inflammatory Effect of Rhapontici Radix Ethanol Extract via Inhibition of NF-κB and MAPK and Induction of HO-1 in Macrophages

Figure 3

Effects of RRE treatment on the expression of (a) cellular proteins iNOS and COX-2, (b) their mRNAs, and (c) HO-1 in RAW 264.7 cells. Cells were treated with (a, b) LPS alone or with LPS and RRE for 24 h and (c) RRE alone for 6 h. β-actin served as a control. Results are representative of three independent experiments. was calculated from comparing with LPS-stimulation value.
