Effects of ganoderic acid A on lipopolysaccharide-induced proinflammatory cytokine release from primary mouse microglia cultures
For several thousand years, Ganoderma lucidum (Ling-Zhi in Chinese and Reishi in Japanese) has been widely used as a traditional medication for the prevention and treatment of various diseases in Asia. Its major biologically active components, ganoderic acids (GAs), exhibit significant medicinal value due to their anti-inflammatory effects. Dysregulation of microglial function may cause seizure...
متن کاملSmoking Enhances the Proinflammatory Effects of Nucleotides on Cytokine Release from Human Lung
Nucleotides have effects on immune cells which are complex but generally proinflammatory, and have been suggested to play a role in smoking-related lung diseases. However, there have been no studies directly measuring functional responses to nucleotides in human lungs taken from smokers. We used fragments of post mortem human lung from smokers and non-smokers, incubated them with a range of nuc...
متن کاملEffect of phenolic glycolipids from Mycobacterium kansasii on proinflammatory cytokine release. A structure-activity relationship study.
The cell wall of pathogenic mycobacteria is abundant with virulence factors, among which phenolic glycolipids (PGLs) are prominent examples. Mycobacterium kansasii, an important opportunistic pathogen, produces seven PGLs and their effect on the release of important proinflammatory cytokines that mediate disease progression has not been investigated. We previously showed that proinflammatory cy...
متن کاملRole of Propolis as a pharmaceutical candidate on interleukin-1β proinflammatory cytokine expression in Alzheimer's rat
Background: One of the important factors that play a key role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is inflammatory processes leading to impaired expression of inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-6, TNF-α, and interleukin-1β (IL-1β). Propolis, as a therapeutic compound, has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate ...
متن کاملDual mechanisms of CYP3A protein regulation by proinflammatory cytokine stimulation in primary hepatocyte cultures.
Whereas many cytochrome P450 enzymes are transcriptionally suppressed by inflammatory stimuli, down-regulation of CYP2B protein by the inflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-1beta is nitric oxide (NO)-dependent and occurs via polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. Here, we used iTRAQ proteomic analysis to search for other proteins that are potentially down-regulated by cellular NO in c...
