Effects of Hc-CATH on iNOS transcription and NO production induced by LPS.
A, iNOS transcription. B, nitrite production. C, effects of sHc-CATH, Hc-CATH1, and Hc-CATH2 on LPS-induced NO production. LPS, 100 ng/ml; peptides, 4 μg/ml. Data are mean ± S.E. values from three separate experiments. *, p < 0.05; **, p < 0.01 (significantly different compared with the control).
