Effects of silibinin treatment on cytokines levels in BALF from mice exposed to SiONPs. (a) IL-6 level in BALF, (b) TNF-α level in BALF, (c) IL-1β level in BALF. NC, normal control mice treated with PBS only; SiONPs, mice treated with SiONPs intranasal instillation; DEX, mice treated with dexamethasone (2 mg/kg) + SiONPs intranasal instillation; Sili 20 and 40, mice treated with silibinin (20 and 40 mg/kg, respectively) + SiONPs intranasal instillation. Data are represented as means ± SD (n = 6). ## p < 0.01 vs. NC group, *,** p < 0.05 and < 0.01 vs. SiONPs group, respectively.
