Figure 5.
The effects of the nutraceutical mixture on CpG island methylation in CPEK cells. Inflamed cells were treated (Mix yes) or not (Mix no) with the nutraceutical mixture (Mix 2) for 4 and 8 h. The bar graphs represent the mean + SEM of three independent experiments performed in triplicate. The figure shows the methylation percentage with respect to ccl17 (A) and tslp (B) expressed as methylated cytosine/methylated cytosine + unmethylated cytosine. The statistically significant differences between experimental conditions are reported as follows: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.
