“…Moreover, its application significantly inhibits the DSS-induced expression of TLR4 and MyD88, the phosphorylation of IκB and the nuclear translocation of NF-κB. Taken together, it suggests that the suppression of the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway may be one of the mechanisms involved in the therapeutic effects of QHCY against UC [143]. Furthermore, QHCY (1.4 mg/mL) treatment attenuates the LPS-induced phosphorylation of JAK1 and JAK2 in differentiated Caco-2 cells, which is in accordance with the reduced phosphorylation state of STAT3.…”

Nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) is a kind of multi-functional nuclear transcription factor involved in regulating gene transcription to influence pathological evolution of inflammatory and immune diseases. Numerous literature evidence that NF-κB pathway plays an essential role in pathogenic development of ulcerative colitis (UC). UC is a chronic non-specific inflammatory bowel disease, and until now, therapeutic agents for UC including aminosalicylates, corticosteroids and immune inhibitors still cannot exert satisfied effects on patients. In recent years, Chinese medicines suggest the advantages of alleviating symptoms and signs, decreasing side-effects and recurrence, whose one of mechanisms is related to regulation of NF-κB pathway. In this review, we categorize Chinese medicines according to their traditional therapeutic functions, and summarize the characteristics of Chinese medicines targeting NF-κB pathway in UC treatment. It indicates that 85 kinds of Chinese medicines' compounds and formulae can directly act on NF-κBp65; while 58 Chinese medicines' ingredients and formulae indirectly suppress NF-κBp65 by regulation of its upstream or other related pathways. Moreover, by the analysis of Chinese medicines' category based on their traditional functions, we conclude the category of dampness-drying and detoxificating medicine targeting NF-κB pathway accounts for primary status for amelioration of UC. Simultaneously, this review also contributes to the choices of Chinese medicine category and provides curative potential of Chinese medicines for clinical UC treatment.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by recurring inflammatory disorders in digestive system, and devoid of effective treatment. Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), stimulated via inflammation whose inhibition could decrease secretion of inflammatory factors. We then determined whether inhibition of PCSK9 could improve the inflammation. First, rats model of colitis was first established via administration of 2,4,6‐trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS), and then verified via determination of body weight loss, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, and histopathological analysis of colonic damage. Results showed that treatment with TNBS induced a great body weight loss, MPO activity increase, and serious colonic damage, showing an obviously character of IBD. PCSK9 was elevated in TNBS‐induced rats, and PCSK9 inhibition delivered by adenovirus vector increased the body weight, decreased MPO activity, and ameliorated histological change of colon. Second, the protective effect of PCSK9 inhibition against TNBS‐induced colitis was accompanied by decrease of proinflammatory factors secretion, including tumor necrosis factor‐α, interleukin‐1β, interleukin‐6, intercellular adhesion molecule 1, and monocyte chemoattractant protein‐1. TNBS could activate toll‐like receptor 4 (TLR4)/nuclear factor‐kappa B (NF‐κB) signaling pathway, while PCSK9 inhibition suppressed activation of TLR4/NF‐κB in TNBS‐induced rats. In conclusion, PCSK9 inhibition attenuated TNBS‐induced rat colitis through anti‐inflammatory effect under inactivation of TLR4/NF‐κB, suggesting potential therapeutic strategy in IBD.

Interleukin‑6 (IL‑6)/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) pathway plays essential roles in the development of inflammatory diseases including ulcerative colitis (UC). Therefore, suppression of IL‑6/STAT3 signaling provides a promising therapeutic strategy in UC. Pien Tze Huang (PZH), a well‑known traditional Chinese formula, has been used in China and Southeast Asia for centuries as a folk remedy for various inflammatory diseases. However, the molecular mechanisms of its anti‑inflammatory effects remain to be elucidated. In the present study, we generated a mouse colitis model by using dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) and evaluated the therapeutic efficacy of PZH against UC by observing the clinical manifestations. We found that PZH obviously alleviated DSS‑induced colitis symptoms, including body weight loss, rectal bleeding and stool consistency. In addition, administration of PZH profoundly prevented DSS‑induced colon shortening, and ameliorated colonic histopathological changes such as mucosal ulceration, infiltration of inflammatory cells, crypt distortion and hyperplastic epithelium. Moreover, PZH markedly inhibited the serum level of the inflammatory biomarker serum amylase A (SAA) in UC mice. Furthermore, PZH treatment significantly inhibited DSS‑induced expression of IL‑6 in colon tissues. Finally, the increased phosphorylation level of STAT3, induced either by DSS in experimental mice or by IL‑6 in the differentiated human colorectal carcinoma cells, was significantly suppressed by PZH. These results suggest that the inhibition of IL‑6/STAT3 signaling is a potential mechanism by which PZH is used in the treatment of UC.
