Article Title: Synergistic Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Effects between Modified Citrus Pectin and Honokiol

doi: 10.1155/2017/8379843

Figure Lengend Snippet: Inhibition of LPS-induced TNF- α (pg/ml) production by HNK, MCP, and MCP : HNK (9 : 1) in RAW 264.7 mouse monocyte cell line. The cells were treated with compounds and/or LPS in starvation medium and TNF- α analyzed by ELISA. Inhibition curves were analyzed by paired t test; ∗ p < 0.05 for HNK versus MCP, and HNK versus MCP : HNK (9 : 1); S, synergism between MCP and HNK.

Article Snippet: TNF- α produced and secreted into the medium by the cells was analyzed by ELISA protocol using the mouse TNF- α Quantikine ELISA kit (R&D systems, Minneapolis, MN) as per manufacturer's instructions [ ].
