Curcumin, an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant compound, was evaluated for its ability to suppress acute carbon tetrachloride-induced liver damage. Acute hepatotoxicity was induced by oral administration of CCl4 (4 g/kg, p.o.). Curcumin treatment (200 mg/kg, p.o.) was given before and 2 h after CCl4 administration. Indicators of necrosis (alanine aminotransferase) and cholestasis (γ-glutamyl transpeptidase and bilirubins) resulted in significant increases after CCl4 intoxication, but these effects were prevented by curcumin treatment. As an indicator of oxidative stress, GSH was oxidized and the GSH/GSSG ratio decreased significantly by CCl4, but was preserved within normal values by curcumin. In addition to its antioxidants properties, curcumin is capable of preventing NF-κB activation and therefore to prevent the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines. Therefore, in this study we determined the concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) mRNA, and NF-κB activation. CCl4-administered rats depicted significant increases in TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 production, while curcumin remarkably suppressed these mediators of inflammation in liver damage. These results were confirmed by measuring TNF-α, and IL-1β protein production using Western Blot analysis. Accordingly, these proteins were increased by CCl4 and this effect was abolished by curcumin. Administration of CCl4 induced the translocation of NF-κB to the nucleus; CCl4 induced NF-κB DNA binding activity was blocked by curcumin treatment. These findings suggest that curcumin prevents acute liver damage by at least two mechanisms: acting as an antioxidant and by inhibiting NF-κB activation and thus production of proinflammatory cytokines. 相似文献

This study aimed to investigate the potential beneficial effect of an antioxidant lignan, Schisandrin B (Sch B), against cisplatin (cDDP) induced oxidative stress mediated geno- and neuro-toxicities. A dose of 10 mg/kg cDDP induced considerable genotoxicity in mice, and Sch B treatment attenuated the cDDP-induced DNA damage as assessed by the comet assay in the brain. The frequency of micro-nucleated erythrocyte production in bone marrow was also significantly reduced by Sch B treatment in cDDP-treated mice. In neurobehavioral studies, Sch B significantly prevented the memory deficits induced by cDDP, and had an anxiolytic effect in the elevated plus maze task. Sch B treatment significantly attenuated lipid peroxidation, acetylcholinesterase activity and nitrite levels induced by cDDP. Furthermore, Sch B effectively inhibited NF-κB and p53 activation, and cleaved caspase-3 expression in cDDP-treated mice. Hence, Sch B with potent antioxidant and neuro-protective property with no mutagenic activity would be beneficial complementary food factor against cDDP induced oxidative stress. 相似文献

BackgroundUlcerative colitis is a subtype of inflammatory bowel disease, characterized by relapsing inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract with limited treatment options. Previous studies suggested that the natural compound tricin, a flavone isolated from rice bran, could suppress chemically-induced colitis in mice, while our recent study also demonstrated the anti-metastatic effect of tricin in colon tumor-bearing mice.Hypothesis/PurposeHere we further investigated the underlying mechanism of the inhibitory effects of tricin on lipopolysaccharides-activated macrophage RAW264.7 cells and explored the efficacy of tricin in acute colitis mouse model induced by 4.5% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) for 7 days.MethodsTricin (75, 100, and 150 mg/kg) or the positive control drug sulfasalazine (200 mg/kg) were orally administered to mice for 7 days. Stool consistency scores, stool blood scores, and body weight were recorded daily. Disease activity index (DAI) was examined on day 7, and colon tissues were collected for biochemical analyses. The fecal microbiome of colitis mice after tricin treatment was characterized for the first time in this study using 16S rDNA amplicon sequencing.ResultsResults showed that tricin (50 µM) remarkably reduced nitric oxide production in lipopolysaccharides-activated RAW264.7 cells and the anti-inflammatory activity of tricin was shown to act through the NF-κB pathway. Besides, tricin treatment at 150 mg/kg significantly reversed colon length reduction, reduced myeloperoxidase activities and DAI scores, as well as restored the elevated myeloid-derived suppressive cells population in acute colitis mice. The influence from DSS on gut microbiota, such as the increased population of Proteobacteria phylum and Ruminococcaceae family, was shown to be relieved after tricin treatment.ConclusionOur present study firstly demonstrated that tricin ameliorated acute colitis by improving colonic inflammation and modulating gut microbiota profile, which supports the potential therapeutic use of tricin for colitis treatment. 相似文献

BackgroundPulmonary emphysema is characterized by irreversible airflow obstruction, inflammation, oxidative stress imbalance and lung remodeling, resulting in reduced lung function and a lower quality of life. Flavonoids are plant compounds with potential anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects that have been used in folk medicine. Our aim was to determine whether treatment with sakuranetin, a flavonoid extracted from the aerial parts of Baccharis retusa, interferes with the development of lung emphysema.MethodsIntranasal saline or elastase was administered to mice; the animals were then treated with sakuranetin or vehicle 2 h later and again on days 7, 14 and 28. We evaluated lung function and the inflammatory profile in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). The lungs were removed to evaluate alveolar enlargement, extracellular matrix fibers and the expression of MMP-9, MMP-12, TIMP-1, 8-iso-PGF-2α and p65-NF-κB in the fixed tissues as well as to evaluate cytokine levels and p65-NF-κB protein expression.ResultsIn the elastase-treated animals, sakuranetin treatment reduced the alveolar enlargement, collagen and elastic fiber deposition and the number of MMP-9- and MMP-12-positive cells but increased TIMP-1 expression. In addition, sakuranetin treatment decreased the inflammation and the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β and M-CSF in the BALF as well as the levels of NF-κB and 8-iso-PGF-2α in the lungs of the elastase-treated animals. However, this treatment did not affect the changes in lung function.ConclusionThese data emphasize the importance of oxidative stress and metalloproteinase imbalance in the development of emphysema and suggest that sakuranetin is a potent candidate that should be further investigated as an emphysema treatment. This compound may be useful for counteracting lung remodeling and oxidative stress and thus attenuating the development of emphysema.

Inflammation is an emerging patho-mechanism of diabetes and its complications. NF-κB pathway is one of the central machinery initiating and propagating inflammatory responses. The present study envisaged the involvement of NF-κB inflammatory cascade in the pathophysiology of diabetic neuropathy using BAY 11-7082, an IκB phosphorylation inhibitor. Streptozotocin was used to induce diabetes in Sprauge Dawley rats. BAY 11-7082 (1 &; 3 mg/kg) was administered to diabetic rats for 14 days starting from the end of six weeks post diabetic induction. Diabetic rats developed deficits in nerve functions and altered nociceptive parameters and also showed elevated expression of NF-κB (p65), IκB and p-IκB along with increased levels of IL-6 &; TNF-α and inducible enzymes (COX-2 and iNOS). Furthermore, there was an increase in oxidative stress and decrease in Nrf2/HO-1 expression. We observed that BAY 11-7082 alleviated abnormal sensory responses and deficits in nerve functions. BAY 11-7082 also ameliorated the increase in expression of NF-κB, IκB and p-IκB. BAY 11-7082 curbed down the levels of IL-6, TNF-α, COX-2 and iNOS in the sciatic nerve. Lowering of lipid peroxidation and improvement in GSH levels was also seen along with increased expression of Nrf2/HO-1. Thus it can be concluded that NF-κB expression and downstream expression of proinflammatory mediators are prominent features of nerve damage leading to inflammation and oxidative stress and BAY 11-7082 was able to ameliorate experimental diabetic neuropathy by modulating neuroinflammation and improving antioxidant defence. 相似文献

Natural plant-derived products are commonly applied to treat a broad range of human diseases, including cancer as well as chronic and acute airway inflammation. In this regard, the monoterpene oxide 1,8-cineol, the active ingredient of the clinically approved drug Soledum®, is well-established for the therapy of airway diseases, such as chronic sinusitis and bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and bronchial asthma. Although clinical trials underline the beneficial effects of 1,8-cineol in treating inflammatory diseases, the molecular mode of action still remains unclear.Here, we demonstrate for the first time a 1,8-cineol-depending reduction of NF-κB-activity in human cell lines U373 and HeLa upon stimulation using lipopolysaccharides (LPS). Immunocytochemistry further revealed a reduced nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65, while qPCR and western blot analyses showed strongly attenuated expression of NF-κB target genes. Treatment with 1,8-cineol further led to increased protein levels of IκBα in an IKK-independent matter, while FRET-analyses showed restoring of LPS-associated loss of interaction between NF-κB p65 and IκBα. We likewise observed reduced amounts of phosphorylated c-Jun N-terminal kinase 1/2 protein in U373 cells after exposure to 1,8-cineol. In addition, 1,8-cineol led to decreased amount of nuclear NF-κB p65 and reduction of its target gene IκBα at protein level in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells.Our findings suggest a novel mode of action of 1,8-cineol through inhibition of nuclear NF-κB p65 translocation via IκBα resulting in decreased levels of proinflammatory NF-κB target genes and may therefore broaden the field of clinical application of this natural drug for treating inflammatory diseases. 相似文献

Icariin inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis via modulation of the NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) ligand (RANKL)-RANK regulatory axis is a major regulator of osteoclast differentiation and activation. Icariin, a flavonol glycoside isolated from the Epimedium herb, has been reported to prevents bone loss in ovariectomized mice and inhibits wear particle-induced osteolysis. However, the molecular mechanism through which icariin inhibits RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis has not been fully understood. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effects of icariin on RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis and to elucidate the mechanism underlying this effect. Our results showed that RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis was inhibited by icariin in bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) and RAW264.7?cells, and that this effect was due to suppression of NF-κB and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation. In addition, icariin inhibited F-actin ring formation and attenuated the bone resorption ability of mature osteoclasts. Collectively, our results indicate that icariin may be a promising potential candidate for the treatment of osteolytic diseases such as osteoporosis. Moreover, our findings lay the foundation for understanding and intervening in osteoclast-related diseases at the molecular level. 相似文献

Background
The aim of this work was to evaluate the hepatoprotective ability of allopurinol to prevent the liver injury induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4).Methods
Acute liver damage was induced with CCl4 (4 g/kg, by gavage); allopurinol (50 mg/kg, by gavage) was given 1 h before and 1 h after CCl4 intoxication and two daily doses for the previous three days. Cirrhosis was established by CCl4 administration (0.4 g/kg, i. p. three times a week, eight weeks); allopurinol was administered (100 mg/kg, by gavage, daily) during the long-term of CCl4 treatment. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (γ-GTP), xanthine oxidase (XO), lipid peroxidation, reduced and oxidized glutathione (GSH, GSSG, respectively), hydroxyproline and histopathologycal analysis were performed. Nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines, transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13) were analyzed by Western blots.Results
Acute injury increased ALT and γ-GTP activities, additionally enhanced NF-κB nuclear translocation and cytokines production such as tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukine-1β, and interleukine-6. Allopurinol partially prevented these effects, while increased interleukine-10. Acute and chronic CCl4 treatments altered the levels of XO activity, lipid peroxidation, and GSH/GSSG ratio, while these remained within normal range with allopurinol administration. Necrosis, fibrosis and TGF-β production induced in chronic injury were partially prevented by allopurinol, interestingly, this drug induced MMP-13 activity.Conclusions
Allopurinol possesses antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antifibrotic properties, probably by its capacity to reduce NF-κB nuclear translocation and TGF-β expression, as well as to induce MMP-13.General significanceAllopurinol might be effective treatment of liver diseases. 相似文献17.

In the present study, we determined the protective role of lutein against Aβ 25–35 peptide-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis in bEND.3 cells. Cell viability was determined through MTT assay. Reactive oxygen species, lipid peroxides, and antioxidant enzyme activities were evaluated to analyze the oxidative stress status. NF-κB and Nrf-2 downstream target protein expressions were determined through western blot. Apoptosis was analyzed through caspase activities and subG1 accumulation. The results showed that Aβ 25–35 significantly increased (p < 0.001) oxidative stress biomarkers. Aβ 25–35 significantly up-regulated NF-κB nuclear expression and down-regulated Nrf-2 levels and HO-1 and, NQO-1 expressions. Aβ 25–35 induced apoptosis through decreasing mitochondrial membrane potential and increasing caspase 9 and 3 activities. Lutein pre-treatment significantly (p < 0.001) improved cell viability and decreased ROS levels (p < 0.001) and lipid peroxidation (p < 0.01). Lutein prevented Aβ 25–35-induced NF-κB nuclear expressions and up-regulated Nrf-2 expressions. Further, lutein also improved mitochondrial membrane potential and down-regulated caspase activities and subG1 accumulation. The present study shows the protective role of lutein against Aβ 25–35-induced toxicity by modulating Nrf-2 and NF-κB expressions in cerebrovascular endothelial cells. 相似文献

Objectives
To identify the protective effect of DJ-1 protein against oxidative stress-induced HepG2 cell death, we used cell-permeable wild type (WT) and a mutant (C106A Tat-DJ-1) protein.Results
By using western blotting and fluorescence microscopy, we observed WT and C106A Tat-DJ-1 proteins were efficiently transduced into HepG2 cells. Transduced WT Tat-DJ-1 proteins increased cell survival and protected against DNA fragmentation and intracellular ROS generation levels in H2O2-exposed HepG2 cells. At the same time, transduced WT Tat-DJ-1 protein significantly inhibited NF-κB and MAPK (JNK and p38) activation as well as regulated the Bcl-2 and Bax expression levels. However, C106A Tat-DJ-1 protein did not show any protective effect against cell death responses in H2O2-exposed HepG2 cells.Conclusions
Oxidative stress-induced HepG2 cell death was significantly reduced by transduced WT Tat-DJ-1 protein, not by C106A Tat-DJ-1 protein. Thus, transduction of WT Tat-DJ-1 protein could be a novel strategy for promoting cell survival in situations of oxidative stress-induced HepG2 cell death.20.
Obovatol attenuates LPS-induced memory impairments in mice via inhibition of NF-κB signaling pathway

Neuroinflammation and accumulation of β-amyloid are critical pathogenic mechanisms of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In the previous study, we have shown that systemic lipopolysaccharide (LPS) caused neuroinflammation with concomitant increase in β-amyloid and memory impairments in mice. In an attempt to investigate anti-neuroinflammatory properties of obovatol isolated from Magnolia obovata, we administered obovatol (0.2, 0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg/day, p.o.) to animals for 21 days before injection of LPS (0.25 mg/kg, i.p.). We found that obovatol dose-dependently attenuates LPS-induced memory deficit in the Morris water maze and passive avoidance tasks. Consistent with the results of memory tasks, the compound prevented LPS-induced increases in Aβ1-42 formation, β- and γ-secretases activities and levels of amyloid precursor protein, neuronal β-secretase 1 (BACE1), and C99 (a product of BACE1) in the cortex and hippocampus. The LPS-mediated neuroinflammation as determined by Western blots and immunostainings was significantly ameliorated by the compound. Furthermore, LPS-induced nuclear factor (NF)-κB DNA binding activity was drastically abolished by obovatol as shown by the electrophoretic mobility shift assay. The anti-neuroinflammation and anti-amyloidogenesis by obovatol were replicated in in vitro studies. These results show that obovatol mitigates LPS-induced amyloidogenesis and memory impairment via inhibiting NF-κB signal pathway, suggesting that the compound might be plausible therapeutic intervention for neuroinflammation-related diseases such as AD. 相似文献
