Quantitative analysis of western blot: levels of phospho-NF-κB, TNF-α, and PAI-1. The expression level of phospho-NF-κB p65 in the kidney of MRL/lpr mice was greatly increased compared with that of control mice. LEF and pMSC treatment attenuated the expression of phospho-NF-κB p65, TNF-α, and PAI-1 at the protein level.
