Evaluation for anti-inflammatory effects ofSiegesbeckia glabrescensextractin vitro

Abstract: The aim of this study is to elucidate the anti-inflammatory effects of Siegesbeckia glabrescens extract in vitro. The n-butanol fraction (100 mg/ml) of S. glabrescens had an approximately 92% inhibitory effect on nitrite production from lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced macrophage cells, whereas other fractions showed relatively low nitric oxide (NO) inhibition. The n-butanol and ethyl acetate fractions of S. glabrescens showed significant chemical NO quenching to approximately 39Á46% in the cell-free system, a… Show more

“…Our results corroborate with the previous report on the ability of Se supplementation to reduce iNOS expression by 3 fold as compared to SeDef LPS unstimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages (Prabhu et al, 2002). Similar results were seen with the role of Aster Yomena (Kim et al, 2017), Eupartoium makinoi (Ahn et al, 2015), Siegesbeckia glabrescens (Lee, Kang, Hwang, & Kim, 2011) and lansai Cand D (Taechowisan, Wanbanjob, Tuntiwachwuttikul, & Liuin, 2010) in down-regulation of iNOS transcription along with NO quenching which further decreases COX-2 and PGE 2 mRNA levels in LPS induced macrophages.…”

“…iNOS and cOX-2 are widely known as the main regulatory factors in inflammatory responses; thus, iNOS and COX-2 expression levels have been examined by many studies for the development of anti-inflammatory agents (21,25,34). As shown in Fig.…”

“…MTT was converted by intact mitochondrial reductase and precipitated as blue crystals during a four hour contact period. The supernatants were gently removed and the formazan crystals were resolved in 100 ml acidic isopropanol (0.04 M HCl in isopropanol), and absorbance was read at 540 nm with a plate reader (Stat-Fax 2100, USA) (Abuharfeil, Al-Oran, & Abo-Shehada, 1999;Lee, Kang, Hwang, & Kim, 2011).…”
