Emodin inhibits tumor necrosis factor-α-induced migration and inflammatory responses in rat aortic smooth muscle cells.
Emodin, a naturally occurring anthraquinone derivative in oriental herbal medicine, has been shown to exert a variety of pharmacological activities. The goal of this study was to determine the effects of emodin on the modulation of cell proliferation, migration, inflammatory responses, and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and MMP-9 expression in t...
متن کاملTherapeutic effect of psoralen on muscle atrophy induced by tumor necrosis factor-α
Objective(s): To observe and determine the effect and mechanism of psoralen on tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)-induced muscle atrophy.Materials and Methods: Three sets of C2C12 cells, including blank control, TNF-α (10 or 20 ng/ml) treatment and a TNF-α (10 or 20 ng/ml) plus psoralen (80 μM) administration were investigated. Cell viabili...

متن کاملTumor Necrosis Factor-o? Stimulates ICAM-1 Expression in Human Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
Human atherosclerotic plaques contain numerous smooth muscle cells (SMCs) that express intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1). Expression of ICAM-1 in different cells is known to be regulated by tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-t*), which has recently been found to be present in the intimal thickening of human arteries. Therefore, we studied the effect of TNF-« on ICAM-1 mRNA content and surfac...
متن کاملcAMP-Response Element-Binding Protein Mediates Tumor Necrosis Factor- –Induced Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Migration
Objective—Migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) contributes to formation of vascular stenotic lesions such as atherosclerosis and restenosis after angioplasty. Previous studies have demonstrated that tumor necrosis factor(TNF) is a potent migration factor for VSMCs. cAMP-response element-binding protein (CREB) is the stimulusinduced transcription factor and activates transcription o...
