Figure 4. GSPE inhibited Pb-induced pro-inflammatory signals: the levels of NF-κB and TNF-α in the kidney.

A. The protein levels of NF-κB and TNF-α. B. The values from densitometry of NF-κB and TNF-α were normalized to the level of GAPDH protein and expressed as fold increased. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM of 4 independent experiments. *Significantly different (P < 0.05) from control group, and ^#significantly different (P < 0.05) from Pb-treated group.
