Figure Lengend Snippet: Inhibitory effect of HCIE on AD-related cytokines expression in HaCaT cells. Gene expression of AD-related cytokines was measured using RT-PCR. The cells were pre-treated with the indicated concentrations of HCIE for 30 min and stimulated with TNF-α/IFN-γ (each 10 ng/mL). The relative mRNA levels of (A) IL-4, (B) IL-13, (C) MDC, (D) RANTES, (E) TARC, and (F) CXCL10 were measured, and mRNA was normalized to GAPDH. Secreted (G) RANTES and (H) TARC were evaluated using ELISA. (I) The percentage of relative gene expression was calculated. Data represented as mean ± SD ( n = 3) and the p values are presented on the graph as follows: ### p < 0.001 vs control group; ** p < 0.01, and *** p < 0.001 vs TNF-α/IFN-γ induced group.
Article Snippet: For the measurement of secreted cytokines, the RANTES ELISA kit (#DY278-05; R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, United States) and TARC ELISA kit (#DY364-05; R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, United States) were used.
