Anti-inflammatory effects of peptides on LPS-induced ear edema. (A) The ears of Balb/c mice (n = 3) were injected intradermally with LPS solution (0.02 µg). After 1 h, the indicated peptides were injected in 32 µM, followed by further incubation for 3 days. (B) Ear morphologies were digitally recorded, and collected ears were stained using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) on paraffinized tissues. 1: phosphate buffered saline, 2: LPS, 3: WIK-10, 4: LPS+WIK-10, 5: WIK-14, 6: LPS+WIK-14, 7: WIKE-14, 8: LPS+WIKE-14. Scale Bar corresponds to 1 mm.
