LWBQ capsules contribute to reduce expression of STAT4/STAT6 and MMP-9/TIMP-1. (A) Relative mRNA expression of STAT4/STAT6 and MMP-9/TIMP-1 were decreased by conducting RT-qPCR; (B and C) Relative protein levels of STAT4/STAT6 and MMP-9/TIMP-1 were decreased by conducting western blot analysis; *, p < 0.05, vs. the detection results before treatment; #, p < 0.05, vs. the control group; △, p < 0.05, vs. the low-dose group; ▲, p < 0.05, vs. the medium-dose group; STAT4: signal transducers and activators of transcription 4; STAT6: signal transducers and activators of transcription 6; MMP-9: matrix metalloproteinase-9; TIMP-1: tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1; GAPDH: glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; RT-qPCR: reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction.
