TA decreased TNFα-stimulated inflammatory response in HCAECs. (A) HCAECs were treated as described in Fig. 3 except for the exposure of TNFα for 3 h, then mRNA expression of VCAM1 and ICAM1 were determined by qPCR. Values are mean ± SEM, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, n = 5.B.HCAECs were treated as described in Fig. 4, then protein expression of VCAM1 and ICAM1 were determined by Western blot. (C) Quantification of panel B, values are mean ± SEM, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, n = 3.
