The effects of Chinese herbal extracts (CHE) on expression of protein involved in migration using HUVEC cells. Cultured HUVEC cells without/with CHE (1 μg/mL for each herbal extract) pretreatment were lysed and the expression levels of proteins related to migration, such as Rac 1/2/3, CDC42, Rho (a), COX2, MMP2 AND MMP9 (b), were analyzed by Western blotting. The results are expressed as mean + SEM. *, p < 0.05 compared to the vehicle group by repeatedly measured one way ANOVA; #, p < 0.05 compared to vehicle group by Mann-Whitney U test (n = three to five independent experiments for each group)
