Effects of polysaccharide extract from XJEK on TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-10 of HUVECs induced by Ang II. (a) TNF-α level in supernatants of HUVECs; (b) IL-1β level in supernatants of HUVECs; (c) IL-10 level in supernatants of HUVECs. 1, blank control group; 2, Ang II (10− 5 mol/L) group; 3, Ang II (10− 5 mol/L) + AqE (0.15 mg/ml) group; 4, Ang II (10− 5 mol/L) + AqE (0.3 mg/ml) group; 5, Ang II (10− 5 mol/L) + AqE (0.6 mg/ml) group; 6, Ang II (10− 5 mol/L) + AqE (1.2 mg/ml) group; 7, Ang II (10− 5 mol/L) + XJEK (1.6 mg/ml) group. Data are expressed as mean ± SD, n = 6. **P < 0.01 vs control group; ##P < 0.01 vs Ang II group
