a Representative western blotting analysis of p-p38, p38, p-NF-κB, NF-κB, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 of PP-exposed A549 cells. b Relative density analysis of p-p38 levels. Data were normalized against p38. c Relative density analysis of p-NF-κB levels. Data were normalized against NF-κB. Relative density analysis of d TNF-α, e IL-1β, and f IL-6. Data were normalized against β-actin. g Cell viability assessment by MTT assay. Data are means ± SD (n = 3 per group). ##P ≤ 0.01; ###P ≤ 0.001 vs. VC. *P ≤ 0.05; **P ≤ 0.01; ***P ≤ 0.001 vs. PP
