U-Bang-Haequi Tang: A Herbal Prescription that Prevents Acute Inflammation through Inhibition of NF-B-Mediated Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase

Figure 1

Inhibition of carrageenan-induced paw swelling by UBT. The UBT was administered to rats at the oral dose of 0.3 or 1.0 g/kg/day. The swelling volume of the paw was measured at 1–3 h after carrageenan injection. Dexamethasone (Dex, 1 mg/kg, p.o.) was used as a positive control. Data represents the mean ± S.E.M. of five animals (significant as compared with control, ^∗∗𝑃<0.01; significant as compared with carrageenan alone, ^#𝑃<0.05, ^##𝑃<0.01). For data points where error bars could not be seen, the standard error was subtended by the data point. UBT, U-bang-haequi tang.
