From: Curcumin and resveratrol inhibit nuclear factor-kappaB-mediated cytokine expression in adipocytes

Figure 6

Curcumin and resveratrol prevent IκB degradation and reduce NF-κB nuclear translocation in adipocytes. (A) Adipocytes were incubated without or with TNFα for 20 min. In parallel, cells were also treated with TNFα and co-incubated with curcumin or resveratrol at the indicated concentrations. Total cellular proteins were solubilized and processed for immunoblot analysis using anti-IκB monoclonal antibody (upper panel) or with anti-β-actin monoclonal antibodies (lower panel). (B) Densitometric quantitation of IκB shown in (A). (C) Adipocytes were incubated without or with TNFα for 62 h. In parallel, cells were also treated with TNFα and co-incubated with curcumin or resveratrol. Nuclear extracts were prepared and NF-κB levels were quantified by ELISA analysis as in Fig. 4.
