Figure Lengend Snippet: Comparison of the effects of CCPI and LA on IL-6 secretion, STAT3 phosphorylation, and the expression of markers associated with pro-inflammation (iNOS) and anti-inflammation/repair (CD206) in AD model cells. (A) IL-6 levels in the AD model cells were measured by ELISA. (B) Western blot showed the expression of iNOS, CD206, STAT3 phosphorylation, and STAT3 after CCPI and LA treatment. (C–E) Quantitative analysis of the iNOS/GAPDH, CD206/GAPDH, and STAT3 phosphorylation/STAT3 ratios in the CCPI and LA-treated groups, respectively. Data are presented as mean ± SD ( n = 3). ### p < 0.001 vs. control group; *** p < 0.001, ** p < 0.01 and * p < 0.05 vs. AD model group; ns p > 0.05 compared with the CCPI group; compared with the LA group, ns p > 0.05.
