The effects of ERN, LP-ERN and Tf-LP-ERN on inflammatory factor in serum of SMMC-7721-tumor-bearing mice. (A) ERN, LP-ERN and Tf-LP-ERN significantly reduced the levels of IL-10, CCL11, and enhanced the level of TNF-α (n = 6). (B) In spleens of SMMC-7721-xenografted mice, ERN, LP-ERN and Tf-LP-ERN increased the expression levels of Nrf2 and its downstream proteins HO-1, SOD-1, SOD-2, while reduced the expression levels of P-IKKα+β, and P-NF-κB, among which, Tf-LP-ERN showed the best efficacy. Quantification data were normalized by GAPDH or the corresponding total proteins and were reported as the folds of those from the corresponding CTRL mice (n = 3). The data were analyzed using a one-way analysis of variance and expressed as means ± S.D. (n = 3). *P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01 vs. control cells.
