SOE reduced the production of IL-6 and IL-8 in SW982 and MH7A cells. Cells were seeded in 96-well plates (1 × 10⁴ cells/well) and allowed to grow for 24 h. Cells were co-treated with SOE (50, 100, 200 μg/ml) for 24 h in the absence or presence of IL-1β (20 ng/ml). Thereafter, the cytokines of IL-6 (A, C, E, G) and IL-8 (B, D, F, H) in the supernatant was quantified using ELISA kits according to the manufacturer’s instructions. (^#P < 0.05, ^##P < 0.01, ^###P < 0.001 vs. Ctrl group; ^**P < 0.01, ^***P < 0.001 vs. IL-1β group, n = 3).
