Fig. 4From: Pleurotus giganteus (Berk. Karun & Hyde), the giant oyster mushroom inhibits NO production in LPS/H2O2 stimulated RAW 264.7 cells via STAT 3 and COX-2 pathwaysEffect of ethanol extract of P. giganteus (EPG) on the NF-kB (a) and STAT-3 (b) expression in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophage cells. Results are expressed as fold of increase compared to LPS treatment as control. Fold increase values are calculated relative to the ACTB gene. Control = cell treated with LPS only; Dexa = dexamethasone; Asp = Aspirin; EPG = ethanol extract of P. giganteus at 10 μg/mL. Data expressed as mean ± S.D (n = 3). The different alphabets denote significant difference (p < 0.05) from the corresponding value for controlBack to article page
