Arthritis was induced in DBA/1J mice, and the therapeutic effect of the M1E and M1G is assessed by measuring the arthritic index, quantifying the expression of inflammatory genes such as p38 MAPK, COX-2, IL1β, MMP3, and TNF-α using real-time PCR and analyzing protein expression using western blotting for phosphorylated p38 MAPK and COX-2. This evidence concerns the gene IL1B and arthritic joint disease.
