Fig. 1

The effect of LevidorTM extract on pro-inflammatory markers (IL-6, TNF-α) induced by LPS in the RAW267.7 cells. All results are given as means ± SD of three independent determinations. Negative control (C−) refers to cells treated with solvent, while positive control (C+) relates to cells treated with inflammatory inducer only. Significantly different values are marked as (*) p ≤ 0.05

Changes in COX-1 (A) and COX-2 (B) gene expression in the U937 cells after 48 h pre-treatment with PMA (10 ng/mL), followed by 40 h of incubation without treatment, 4 h treatment with 1, 2,5, 5, 10, 25, and 50 μg/mL of LevidorTM as well as LPS addition (1 μg/mL) for 2, 4, 6, and 16 h. Results are presented as fold changes in the expression of investigated genes. Negative control (C−) refers to cells treated with PMA, while positive control (C+) relates to cells treated also with inflammatory inducer. Significantly different values are marked as (*) p ≤ 0.05. The results are calculated based on three independent experiments
