Anti-Inflammatory Effect of Rosa rugosa Flower Extract in Lipopolysaccharide-Stimulated RAW264.7 Macrophages.

ABSTRACT: Rosa rugosa Thunb, a deciduous shrub of the genus Rosa, has been widely used to treat stomach aches, diarrhoea, pain, and chronic inflammatorydisease in eastern Asia. In recent years, our research team has extensively studied the Rosa rugosa flowerextract, and specificallyundertook pharmacological experiments which have optimized the extraction process. Our methods have yielded a standard extract enriched in phenolic compounds, named PRE. Herein, we expand our efforts and evaluated the antiinflammatoryactivity of PRE on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammationin RAW 264.7 macrophages. PRE significantlyinhibited production of nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-?, interleukin (IL)-6, and interleukin 1? (IL-1?), as well as expression of their synthesizing enzymes, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase2 (COX-2). Furthermore, PRE inhibited activity of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) as well as nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-?B) signaling pathway. Our findingsare the firstto explain the anti-inflammatorymechanism by PRE in LPS-stimulated macrophages. Given these results, we propose that PRE has therapeutic potential in the prevention of inflammatory disorders.

Project description:Context Torin2 has various pharmacological properties. However, its anti-inflammatory activity has not been reported. Objective This study focused on the potential anti-inflammatory properties of Torin2 in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-evoked RAW264.7 murine macrophages. The study aimed to shed light on the molecular mechanisms that ameliorate these effects. Methods Torin2 was applied to 100 ng/mL lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW 264.7 macrophages in vitro. Nitric oxide (NO) levels were detected using the Griess reagent kit. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-1β, interleukin (IL)-6, and tumor necrosis factor in the supernatant fraction were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Gene expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) were tested using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Cyclooxygenase-2 and inducible nitric oxide synthase proteins, phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) subgroups, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), p38, I-kappa-B-alpha (IκBα), and nuclear factor-kappa-B (NF-κB), and activation in extracts were detected via western blotting. Nuclear factor-kappa-B/p65 nuclear translocation was tested using an immunofluorescence assay. Results The results demonstrated that pre-treatment with Torin2 profoundly attenuated the lipopolysaccharide-stimulated levels of nitric oxide and prostaglandin E2, pro-inflammatory cytokines, messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA), and protein expression of cyclooxygenase-2 and inducible nitric oxide synthase. Collectively, Torin2 pre-treatment notably weakened lipopolysaccharide-induced damage by reducing the phosphorylation of nuclear factor-kappa-B, p38, c-Jun N-terminal kinase, extracellular signal-regulated kinase proteins, and nuclear factor-kappa-B/p65 nuclear translocation. Conclusion Numerous pieces of evidence indicated that Torin2 reversed inflammatory activation by regulating nuclear factor-kappa-B and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways and provided a tentative potential candidate for preventing and treating inflammatory diseases.
