The effects of SZP on the secretion of inflammatory cytokines and proteins in DN mice. The expression level of TNF-α (a). The expression level of MCP-1 (b). The expression level of IL-6 (c). The values presented are the means ± SD of six independent experiments (n = 6) and differences between mean values were assessed by ANOVA. NF-κB protein expressions in DN mice after SZP treatment (d). The values presented are the means ± SD of three independent experiments (n = 3) and differences between mean values were assessed by ANOVA. ###P < 0.01 versus sham control group, ***P < 0.01 versus DN group and *P < 0.05 versus DN group. TNF-α, Tumor necrosis factor-α; MCP-1, Monocyte chemotactic protein-1; IL-6, Interleukin 6. NF-κB, Nuclear factor-kappa B
