Scrophularia buergeriana regulates cytokine production in vitro.

Abstract:

:The Scrophularia buergeriana (SB) has long been used to treat various diseases an account of its antimicrobial and anti-virus activity. However, it is unclear how SB regulates the immune responses. This study investigated the effect of SB on the production of cytokines in a human T-cell line, MOLT-4 cells, and mouse peritoneal macrophages. The MOLT-4 cells were cultured for 24 h in the presence or absence of SB plus concanavalin (con) A. SB plus con A significantly increased the level of interleukin (IL)-2, IL-4 and interferon (IFN)-gamma production compared with that of con A alone (approximately 1.79-fold for IL-2, 2-fold for IL-4, and 1.85-fold for IFN-gamma, p < 0.05). SB plus recombinant IFN-gamma (rIFN-gamma) increased the level of IL-12 and NO production compared with rIFN-gamma alone. In addition, SB plus rIFN-gamma increased the level the iNOS expression on mouse peritoneal macrophages. Overall, SB may have an immune-enhancement effect through cytokine production.
