Inhibitory effect of baicalein on Ezrin RNA in A431 cells. A431 cells were treated with baicalein at 0, 5, 10, 20, and 40 μM for 48 h. After baicalein treatment, the cell samples were harvested, and RNAs in these samples were extracted. Ezrin RNA expression was detected by RT-PCR. 0.1% DMSO served as the blank control. β-actin served as the loading control. The expression of Ezrin RNA in A431 cells gradually decreased with increasing baicalein concentrations. Three independent experiments were carried out and representative figures are shown.
