mRNA expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and PBEF and protein expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in lung. A) Real-time PCR showed that the expression levels of ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and PBEF mRNA decreased significantly in the EP and GL groups compared to the control group. B) Western-blot showed that the expression levels of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 protein decreased significantly in the EP and GL groups compared to the control group. C) Quantitative assessment of protein relative to β-actin showed that the expression levels of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 protein decreased significantly in the EP and GL groups compared to the control group. * P < 0.05 versus the control group. EP, ethyl pyruvate; GL, glycyrrhizin; ICAM-1, intercellular adhesion molecule-1; PBEF, pre-B-cell colony-enhancing factor; VCAM-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule 1.
