Inhibition of Carrageenan-Induced Acute Inflammation in Mice by Oral Administration of Anthocyanin Mixture from Wild Mulberry and Cyanidin-3-Glucoside

Figure 3

Effect of C3G and AF on carrageenan-induced leukocyte influx into peritoneal cavity. Groups of mice received C3G or AF (4 mg/100 g body weight) or indomethacin (4 mg/100 g body weight) or saline (control) by gavage in two different times: 30 min before (a, b, and c) and 1 h after (d, e, and f) cg or saline injection into the peritoneal cavity. Total leukocyte (a, d), PMN (b, e) and MN (c, f) cell counts were determined in peritoneal washes collected 3 h after cg or saline i.p. injection, as described in Section 2. Values are mean ± EPM of 8 animals. when compared with the corresponding group without cg stimulus (saline + saline). when compared with the corresponding control group (saline + cg).
