Resveratrol (Res) inhibits PM-induced inflammatory cytokines in HBE cells. HBE cells were treated with SIRT1 activator resveratrol (Res) together with PM for 24 h. (A-E) The mRNA levels of IL-6, IL-8, IL-17A, and MUC5AC were measured by RT-PCR. Data are presented as Mean ± SD of three independent experiments. *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001, and ****p<0.0001.
Abbreviations: PM, Particulate matter; HBE, Human bronchial epithelial; SIRT1, Sirtuin 1; MUC5A, Mucin 5AC.
