Cudratricusxanthone A from Cudrania tricuspidata suppresses pro-inflammatory mediators through expression of anti-inflammatory heme oxygenase-1 in RAW264.7 macrophages.

Abstract:

:Cudratricusxanthone A (CTXA), isolated from the roots of Cudrania tricuspidata Bureau (Moraceae) has an isoprenylated xanthone skeleton that is known to exert a variety of biological activities. In the present study, we demonstrated that CTXA inhibited cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and inducible nitric oxide (NO) synthase (iNOS) expression, and thereby reduced COX-2-derived prostaglandin E2 (PGE(2)) and iNOS-derived NO production in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated macrophages. Similarly, CTXA suppressed tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) production. Moreover, CTXA inhibited the induced phosphorylation and degradation of IkappaB-alpha as well as the LPS-induced increase in p65 in the nuclear fraction of macrophages. CTXA also induced heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) expression and increased heme oxygenase (HO) activity in RAW264.7 macrophages. We also demonstrated that the effects of CTXA on LPS-induced PGE(2), NO, TNF-alpha, and IL-1beta production were partially reversed by the HO-1 inhibitor tin protoporphyrin, suggesting that CTXA-induced HO-1 expression was partly responsible for the resulting anti-inflammatory effects of the drug. Thus CTXA was shown to be an effective HO-1 inducer, capable of inhibiting macrophage-derived pro-inflammatory mediators.
