The Critical Role of IL-10 in the Antineuroinflammatory and Antioxidative Effects of Rheum tanguticum on Activated Microglia

Figure 2

Inhibitory effects of Rt on CGA- or PST-induced IL-1β production in the hippocampal slice cultures. (a) The effect of Rt (10 μg/ml) on the protein level of IL-1β after stimulation with CGA using Western blotting. The results represent the mean ± SEM of three independent experiments. The asterisks indicate a statistically significant difference from the indicated value (). (b) The effect of Rt (10 μg/ml) on the protein level of IL-1β after stimulation with PST. The results represent the mean ± SEM of three independent experiments. The asterisks indicate a statistically significant difference from the indicated value ().
