Relative mRNA expression of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in KCs in each group. Compared to the control group, LPS group was treated with 100 ng/ml LPS for 12 h; TGF group was pretreated with 10 ng/ml TGF for 3 h, then stimulated with 100 ng/ml LPS, and cultured for 12 h. Inhibitor group was pretreated with 10 µM Galunisertib and 10 ng/ml TGF for 3 h, and then cultured with 100 ng/ml LPS for 12 h. *P<0.05 compared with the control group; #P<0.05 compared with LPS group. IL, interleukin; TNF-α, tumor necrosis factor-α; KCs, Kupffer cells.
