Figure 7

Effect of MET and Com C on the expression of phospho-AMPK and phospho-NF-κBp65 protein in PQ-treated RLE-6TN cells. The cells were pretreated with MET and Com C for 2 hours and then treated with PQ for 24 hours. Lysis buffer was added to the cells to extract protein for Western blotting analysis. Data are shown as the ; (b) , ; (c) , ; vs. control group, vs. PQ group, ^▲ vs. PQ+MET group.
