Effects of RRE treatment on the phosphorylation of (a) ERK, (b) p38, and (c) JNK MAPKs in RAW 264.7 cells. Cells were treated with RRE for 1 h and challenged with LPS for 30 min. ERK, p38, and JNK, as well as their phosphorylated forms (p-ERK, p-p38, and p-JNK), were examined by Western blot. Results are representative of three independent experiments.
