New approach of medicinal herbs and sulfasalazine mixture on ulcerative colitis induced by dextran sodium sulfate

Figure 3 Effect of sulfasalazine (30 mg/kg) + Citrus unshiu peel and Bupleuri radix mixture (30 mg/kg) on antioxidant proteins in Dextran Sodium Sulfate-induced colitis mice. Western blot detection of the antioxidant proteins; SOD, Catalase, and GPx-1/2 protein expression levels in mice from the groups of Normal (non-DSS), Vehicle (DSS control), 30sulfa (sulfasalazine 30 mg/kg-treated), 60sulfa (sulfasalazine 60 mg/kg-treated), and SCPB (30sulfa plus Citrus unshiu peel and Bupleuri radix mixture at 30 mg/kg-treated). Data are presented as mean ± standard error of the mean for n = 7. ^aP < 0.05, ^eP < 0.001 vs normal (non-DSS and untreated) mice; ^cP < 0.05, ^dP < 0.01 vs DSS control mice. SCPB: Sulfasalazine (30 mg/kg) + Citrus unshiu peel and Bupleuri radix mixture (30 mg/kg).
