Kaempferol and kaempferide inhibited expression of Nrf2 and HO-1 in OA-induced HepG2 cells. HepG2 cells were incubated with different concentrations of kaempferol or kaempferide in the presence of 0.5 mM OA for 48 h followed by western blot analysis of the expression of Nrf2 and HO-1. (a) Representative blots. (b) Quantification results of the expression of Nrf2. (c) Quantification results of the expression of HO-1. Data were expressed as mean ± SD of three independent experiments. ## p < 0.01, compared with vehicle-treated control cells (Con); ** p < 0.01, compared with OA-treated cells (OA).
