Fig. 5. VitabridC¹² inhibited Dermatophagoides farinae body (Dfb)-induced inflammatory responses in the Nc/Nga mouse skin. (A) Total RNA was isolated from the skin lesions of Dfb-treated mice, and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was performed to examine atopic dermatitis-specific cytokines. VitabridC¹² decreased the mRNA expression levels of thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), CCL4, interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5, and IL-13. Data represent mean values±standard error (SE) (n=5). ^*p<0.05. The data shown are representative of three independent experiments. (B) Immunoglobulin E (IgE) was quantified by performing an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Representative clinical presentations of the mice from the control group, Dfb group, Vitabrid group, and VitabridC¹² group are shown. Data represent mean values±SE (n=5). ^*p<0.05. The data shown are representative of three independent experiments.
