extract at the concentration of 100 μg/ml activates macrophages and modulates the TGF-β/Smad/Bcl2/caspase/LC3 and AMPK/PI3K/Akt/p38-NF-κB cascades, improving lung injury and inflammatory aggravation in a murine allergic asthma model induced by OVA-LPS [241]. This evidence concerns the gene MAP1LC3A and allergic asthma.
