Figure 6. Effect of osthole on MCP-1 A. and IL-8 B. release induced by LPS in HK-2 cells.

Cells were treated with LPS(1 μg/mL) with or without osthole for 24 h. 100μL of culture medium in each group was taken out to measure the levels of MCP-1 and IL-8 using ELISA kits. Data are representedas mean±SD of three independent experiments. ^###p < 0.001 compared to untreated group, *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 compared to LPS alone.
