M101 reduces the protein expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokine ligands in P. gingivalis-induced inflammation in EC. The expression levels amongst untreated EC, M101-treated EC, Pg-infected EC and M101 treated Pg-infected EC were compared. M101 treatment (1 g/L) for 6 h decreased the protein expression of pro-inflammatory markers (A) IL-1β, (B) IL-8, (C) RANTES, (D) IP-10 in untreated and Pg-infected EC (MOI = 100). Data are expressed as the mean ± SD. †Difference versus untreated EC, p < 0.05, *difference versus Pg-infected EC, p < 0.05.
