Effect of peptides KT2 and RT2 on anti-inflammation-associated mRNA expression. The production of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) (a, b) and mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase-1 (MKP-1) (c, d) were analyzed from tested macrophages RAW 264.7. The expression levels of PCR products were normalized using glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase. The relative gene expression of peptide(−)/LPS(−) group (control group) was set at 1. Bars depict the mean and standard deviations. Different lowercase letters on the top of individual bars indicate statistically significant differences (p < 0.05)
