DEAE-DEX@LSDBC activates the A–E Nrf2 signaling, inhibits the F–J NLRP3 inflammasome activation and K, L apoptosis. The indicated protein levels from different groups were detected by western blot and statistical graphs show the relative expression levels of proteins. Each bar represents the mean ± SD (n = 6). ***p < 0.001 Model vs ND; #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01 and ###p < 0.001 vs Model; §p < 0.05, §§p < 0.01 and §§§p < 0.001 vs DEAE-DEX@LSDBC
