Effects of 18β-Gly on MAPK/STAT3/NF-κB signaling pathways in A549 cells. (A) Expression levels of p-p38, p-JNK, p-ERK, p-STAT3, NF-κB, and IκB-α were measured by Western blotting. (B) Expression levels of STAT3, NF-κB, and p-IκB in the nucleus were measured by Western blotting. (C) Expression levels of p-p38, p-STAT3, Bcl-2, cle-cas-3, and cle-PARP proteins in 18β-Gly and p38 inhibitor-treated A549 cells. (D) Expression levels of p-JNK, p-STAT3, Bcl-2, cle-cas-3, and cle-PARP proteins in 18β-Gly and JNK inhibitor-treated A549 cells. (E) Expression levels of p-ERK, p-STAT3, Bcl-2, cle-cas-3, and cle-PARP proteins in 18β-Gly- and ERK inhibitor-treated A549 cells. β-actin and Lamin B1 were served as the loading controls. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001 vs 0 h or 18β-Gly + MAPK inhibition.
