Summary: | Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects of extract from Trogopterorum Faeces (TF) on the RAW 264.7 cells. Methods: To prove the TF`s anti-inflammatory effects, we investigated nitric oxide (NO) production and own cell viability. We examined the cytokine productions on lipopolysacchride (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 cells and also cellular regulatory mechanisms. Results: TF does not have any cytotoxic effect. TF reduced LPS-induced NO production, interleukin (IL)-1b, IL-6, IL-10 and tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a) in RAW 264.7 cells. TF inhibited the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) such as p38, extracelluar signal-regulated kinase (ERK 1/2) and c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) and also the degradation of inhibitory kappa B a (Ik-Ba) in the LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. TF reduced the serum levels of IL-1b, IL-6, TNF-a. The survival rate of LPS-induced endotoxin shock was increased by TF administration. Conclusions: TF down-regulated LPS-induced NO and cytokines production, which could provide a clinical basis for anti-inflammatory properties. |
