The effect of P12 on cytokine production in LPS-induced ALI mice. a, b The heat map showing cytokine profiles of the BALF (a) and serum (b) under LPS challenge (10 mg/kg, 24 h) with/without P12 pre-treatment (1 μM in 50 μL PBS, 2 h before LPS stimulation) using a multiplexed cytokine assay. The levels of selected cytokines of IL-12p40 (c, f), IFN-γ (d, g), and IL-10 (e, h) in the BALF (c–e) and in the serum (f–h) were shown. N = 5, ns: not significant, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, ****p < 0.0001
