PSA inhibits the secretion of IL-1β may through TLR4 signal pathway. (A) Optimum PSA concentration selection based on the mRNA expression levels of IL-1β. (B) mRNA levels of key toll-like recepters in the liver (n = 6–12). (C–G) Immunblots (C) and densitometric analysis of pro-IL-1β (D), IL-1β-p17 (E), CYP2C19 (F) and P-gp (G) in liver tissue homogenates treated with the vehicle, LPS and LPS + PSA. (G–K), Immunblots (H) of key proteins of TLR4 signal transduction and densitometric analysis of these proteins (I–L) in primary hepatocyte treated with the vehicle, LPS, LPS + PSA and LPS + TAK-242. Western blot results are representative of three independent experiments. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, Unpaired t test.
