Citrus fruits are an abundant source of various flavonoids, which have been used as a traditional herbal medicine in Korea and China. Most flavonoids are known to have anti-oxidant, anti-bacterial and analgesic properties. In this study, it was examined whether flavonoids (nobiletin, naringin and hesperidin) isolated from Korea Citrus aurantium L. inhibited the pro-inflammatory mediators including cytokines by blocking nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages. The flavonoids suppressed mRNA and protein expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in LPS-induced macrophages. The molecular mechanism was associated with inhibition of the degradation/phosphorylation of I-κB-α and nuclear translocation of the NF-κB p-65 as well as phosphorylation of MAPK by flavonoids. These results suggest that flavonoids have anti-inflammatory effects by suppressing expression of COX-2, iNOS and cytokines by blocking the NF-κB and MAPK signalling in RAW 264.7 macrophages.  相似文献

Glucosamine supplements are very promising nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents widely used for the treatment of arthritis in animals and humans. In this study, we have proposed the molecular mechanism underlying the anti-inflammatory properties of glucosamine hydrochloride (GLN) using mouse macrophage cell line (RAW 264.7). Treatment with GLN inhibited LPS-stimulated nitric oxide (NO) production. Western blotting and RT-PCR analysis showed that GLN treatment decreased LPS-induced inducible nitric-oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) protein and mRNA expression in RAW 264.7 cells, respectively. To further elucidate the mechanism of inhibitory effect of GLN, we studied the LPS-induced phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (pp44/42 and pp38). Our results clearly indicated that GLN treatment resulted in a reduction of pp38, whereas activation of p44/42 was not affected. In addition, LPS-induced activation of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) DNA binding suggests an inhibitory effect of GLN. These results indicate that GLN suppresses the LPS-induced production of NO, expression of iNOS and COX-2 by inhibiting NF-kappaB activation and phosphorylation of p38 MAP kinase.  相似文献

Hexahydrocurcumin, 1-dehydro-[6]-gingerdione, 6-dehydroshogaol and 6-shogaol were evaluated for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities in the present study. The relative antioxidant potencies of ginger compounds decreased in similar order of 1-dehydro-[6]-gingerdione, hexahydrocurcumin>6-shogaol>6-dehydroshogaol in both 1,1-diphenyl-2-picyrlhydrazyl (DPPH) radical-scavenging and trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) assays. All tested compounds could attenuate lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-elicited increase of prostaglandin E2 (PGE(2)) in murine macrophages (RAW 264.7) in a concentration-dependent manner but hexahydrocurcumin of 7μM and 6-shogaol of 7μM. The strongest inhibitory effect was observed for 6-dehydroshogaol and 6-shogaol at 14μM with the inhibition of 53.3% and 48.9%, respectively. Furthermore, both 6-dehydroshogaol and 1-dehydro-[6]-gingerdione significantly suppressed the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) proteins in a concentration-dependent fashion. These results contribute to our theoretical understanding of the potential beneficial effects of consuming ginger as a food and/or dietary supplement.  相似文献

Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) has been used in folk medicine to treat headaches, epilepsy, poor circulation, and many other ailments. It was found that rosemary could act as a stimulant and mild analgesic and could reduce inflammation. However, the mechanisms underlying the anti-inflammatory effects of rosemary need more study to be established. Therefore, in this study, the effects of rosemary on the activation of nuclear factor kappa beta (NF-kB) and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and the production of nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), and cytokine in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells were investigated. A methanol extract of rosemary and its hexane fraction reduced NO generation with an IC50 of 2.75 and 2.83 μg/ml, respectively. Also, the methanol extract and the hexane fraction inhibited LPS-induced MAPKs and NF-kB activation associated with the inhibition of iNOS or COX-2 expression. LPS-induced production of PGE2 and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) were blocked by rosemary. Rosemary extract and its hexane fraction are important for the prevention of phosphorylation of MAPKs, thereby blocking NF-kB activation, which in turn leads to decreased expression of iNOS and COX-2, thus preventing inflammation.  相似文献

Toll-like receptors (TLR) play an important role in the recognition of many pathogen-associated molecular patterns and the induction of innate immunity. Dysregulated activation of TLR signaling pathways is associated with certain inflammatory diseases. Japanese bog orchid (Eupatorium japonicum), which belongs to a family of Asteraceae plants, is consumed as a tea. The present study investigated the effect of the ethanol extracts of flowers of Japanese bog orchid (EJE) on nuclear factor (NF)-κB activation and expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) by TLR agonists in murine macrophages. EJE suppressed NF-κB activation and iNOS and COX-2 expression induced by lipopolysaccharide (TLR4 agonist), polyriboinosinic polyribocytidylic acid (TLR3), and macrophage-activating 2 kDa lipopeptide (TLR2 and TLR6). These results suggest that EJE can regulate TLR signaling pathways and indicated its potential as a potent anti-inflammatory drug.  相似文献

Aim of the study is to evaluate the antiinflammatory effects of ethanolic extract of the marine brown alga Sargassum sagamianum collected from Yeonhwari coast of Korea. Ethanolic extract of S. sagamianum (SA-E extract) inhibited expression of nitric oxide (NO) and cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α) as well as inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 cells without affecting cell viability. In addition, the expression of nuclear factor (NF)-κB p65 was suppressed by SA-E extract. Furthermore, the rate of formation of edema in the mouse ear was reduced by 46% at the highest dose tested (250 mg/kg) compared to that in the control. This study suggests that SA-E extract exerts potent inhibitory effects on LPS-induced expression of inflammatory mediators such as NO, iNOS, COX-2, and cytokines in macrophages through suppression of the NF-κB p65 pathway. SA-E extract might have potential clinical applications as an anti-inflammatory agent.  相似文献

We investigated the anti-inflammatory effect of the hexane fraction from Orostachys japonicus (OJH) in LPS (lipopolysaccharide)-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Pretreatment with OJH dose-dependently reduced the cellular NO (nitric oxide) concentration and also inhibited expression of iNOS (inducible nitric oxide synthase) protein and mRNA. By the prevention of IκBα (inhibitory factor kappa B alpha) phosphorylation and degradation, OJH inhibited LPS-induced NF-κB (nuclear factor-kappa B) activation. OJH had no effect on the LPS-induced phosphorylation of ERK (extracellular signal-regulated kinase), JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase), or p38, whereas it attenuated the phosphorylation of Akt in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, OJH suppressed the LPS-induced expression of LPS receptors CD14 and TLR4 (toll like receptor 4). These results suggest that OJH may interrupt LPS-induced pro-inflammatory cascades through inhibition of NF-κB and Akt activation.  相似文献

Purified polyphenolic-rich extracts from four native Australian fruits, Illawarra Plum (Podocarpus elatus Endl., Podocarpaceae), Kakadu Plum (Terminalia ferdinandiana Exell, Combretaceae), Muntries (Kunzea pomifera F. Muell., Myrtaceae) and Native Currant (Acrotriche depressa R.Br., Epacridaceae), were screened for their ability to modulate anti-inflammatory activity in LPS-activated murine macrophages (RAW 264.7). The Kakadu Plum extract inhibited the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and importantly was the only fruit in this study that displayed differential inhibition of the expression of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 but not COX-1. Illawarra Plum (COX-2 and iNOS) and Native Currant (iNOS only) also inhibited inflammatory enzymes, while Muntries exhibited none of these activities under the same conditions. All evaluated extracts inhibited the production of prostaglandin E2 and nitric oxide, suggesting the involvement of alternative pathways in their regulation for the Muntries extract. Further molecular investigations, showed that Kakadu Plum inhibited the NF-??B pathway, but not the p44/42 mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. Collectively, these results demonstrate potential anti-inflammatory activities of native Australian fruits, in particular Kakadu Plum, in LPS-activated murine macrophages, thus confirming the potential biological activities of these fruits.  相似文献
