Figure 6.

Effects of dexamethasone (1 and 10 μM) on expression of CSE and iNOS proteins as determined by Western blotting in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (1 μg/ml, 37°C, 4 hrs) challenged human foetal liver cells. β‐actin was used as control protein. Representative gel photos are shown in (A) and quantitative data are shown in (B). ‘Saline’ indicates data obtained from sampling of culture medium in the presence of saline (vehicle for LPS). ‘Veh + LPS’ indicates data obtained from LPS‐challenged liver cells in the presence of vehicle for dexamethasone. Results are mean ± S.E., n= 4.
