Effects of curcumin on hepatic NF-κB activation in HFD-fed ApoE−/− mice. ApoE−/− mice were fed a normal diet, high-fat diet and high-fat diet supplemented with 0.1% curcumin (w/w) for 16 weeks. Nuclear extracts from liver tissue were prepared for Western blotting of the p65 subunit of NF-κB (a) or NF-κB binding activity assay (b). For panel A, (Top panel) Representative blot, (Bottom panel) Quantitative analysis of panel A. Results are mean ± SEM (n = 10 per group). #P < 0.05 versus control group, *P < 0.05 versus HF group. Control, normal diet; HF, high-fat diet; HF + Curcumin, high-fat diet supplemented with curcumin
