LIP can significantly increase the expression of inflammatory molecules in MCF-7 cells. a Heat map representation of candidate genes involved in the pathways induced by LIP. Blue and red colors represent low-to-high expression levels, and the color scales correspond to the expression values of the microarray. b Q-PCR analysis of inflammatory molecule (TNF-α, IL-1β) expression in MCF-7 and K562 cells incubated with LIP for different times. Total RNA was quantified by qRT-PCR and normalized to gapdh expression. c Western blot analysis of inflammatory factor expression in MCF-7 and K562 cells. Western blot analysis for the expression of TNF-α & IL-1β in MCF-7 and K562 cells incubated with LIP for different times. β-actin served as a loading control(left pane). Histogram showing statistics of the above results (right pane). Means ± SDs are shown (n = 3 per group). **P < 0.01
