Fig. 3. Effects of Angelica gigas Nakai (AG) on interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α levels in activated human mast cells-1. Cells were incubated with various concentration of AG (0.01, 0.1, and 1 mg/mL) for 1 hour before activation with PMA plus 1 mg/mL of calcium Ionophore A23187 (PMACI) for 8 hours. (A-C) The IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α amounts were measured by ELISA kits. Dexamethasone (Dex, 100 nM) was used as positive control. Results are shown the mean ± standard deviation of experiments. #P < 0.05, significantly different from control; *P < 0.05, significantly different from PMACI-treatments.
