Baicalin Induces IFN-α/β and IFN-γ Expressions in Cultured Mouse Pulmonary Microvascular Endothelial Cells

We studied the effect of baicalin, an extract from Radix Scutellariae (a traditional Chinese medicine) in inducing mouse pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (MPMVECs) to produce interferons (IFNs). MPMVECs were cultured in vitro in the presence of different concentrations of baicalin (10, 20,...
