Levels of the inflammatory cytokines in the colon tissue of colitis mice after treatment with LMWH, blank NP and LMWH-NP. Data are shown as mean ± S.D (n = 5). *, $= p < 0.05 compared to each of the colitis control and LMWH groups respectively. Only LMWH-NP (500 IU/kg) were able to achieve an efficient and significant reduction of TNF-α IL-1β in comparison with colitis control, while LMWH (100 IU/kg) showed no significant efficiency. Both the blank and drug-loaded NP have significantly reduced the levels of IL-6.
