Fig. 7. DS enhances the expression of HO-1 and suppresses that of pro-inflammatory cytokines in mouse lungs.

Fig. 7

Mice (n=5 in each group), fed with either PBS or the indicated amounts of DS, received an intranasal LPS or sham. The expressions of HO-1 (A), TNF-α (B), and IL-1β (C)in the lungs were measured by semi-quantitative RT-PCR and subsequently densitometric analyses of PCR bands. Relative expression of each gene was normalized against that of GAPDH. Data represent the mean±SEM (*** P< 0.05, compared to the LPS-treated).
