Abstract The transcription factor NF-κB regulates a large array of genes of immune and inflammatory responses. Deregulated NF-κB signalling is implicated in the pathogenesis and broad spectrum of human inflammatory disorders and malignancies. The mechanism for NF-κB activation is the inducible degradation of IκB, triggered through its site-specific phosphorylation by a multi-subunit IκB kinase (IKK) complex. Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) a well-known anti-inflammatory agent that binds to ATP binding pocket of IKKβ and inhibits its kinase activity. However, several side effects of aspirin due to the inactivation of COX-1 limits the therapeutic usage of ASA. Here we have demonstrate the effect of a plant phenolic compound benzoylsalicylic acid (BzSA) isolated first time in plants a potent anti-viral compound inhibits Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and enhance the plant defense response (Samuel et all 2016&2017) inhibit the IKKβ mediated NF-κB pathway higher than aspirin. Our In-vitro COX enzymatic assays with BzSA have shown less COX-1 and high COX-2 inhibition as compared to ASA. Western blotting analysis of Raw 264.7 cells that were pre-treated with BzSA down-regulated LPS stimulated pIKK-β, pIκB, NF-κBp65, TNF-α, COX-1, COX-2, 5-LOX, IL-1β, and IL-6 higher than ASA. Therefore, our observations suggested that the potencial therapeutic value of BzSA an upcoming new inhibitor of NF-KB pathway and the dual inhibitor of COX2/5-LOX without effecting the usefull COX-1. Hence useful as an anti-inflammatory agent like ASA.

Inflammation is the major causative factor of different diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and cancer. Anti-inflammatory drugs are often the first step of treatment in many of these diseases. The present study is aimed at evaluating the anti-inflammatory properties of isoorientin, a selective cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor isolated from the tubers of Pueraria tuberosa, in vitro on mouse macrophage cell line (RAW 264.7) and in vivo on mouse paw edema and air pouch models of inflammation. Isoorientin reduced inflammation in RAW 264.7 cell line in vitro and carrageenan induced inflammatory animal model systems in vivo. Cellular infiltration into pouch tissue was reduced in isoorientin treated mice compared to carrageenan treated mice. Isoorientin treated RAW 264.7 cells and animals showed reduced expression of inflammatory proteins like COX-2, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX), and interleukin 1-β (IL-1-β) both in vitro and in vivo. The antioxidant enzyme levels of catalase and GST were markedly increased in isoorientin treated mice compared to carrageenan treated mice. These results suggest that isoorientin, a selective inhibitor of COX-2, not only exerts anti-inflammatory effects in LPS induced RAW cells and carrageenan induced inflammatory model systems but also exhibits potent antioxidant properties.

PIM kinases, a small family of serine/threonine kinases, are important intermediates in the cytokine signaling pathway of inflammatory disease. In this study, we investigated whether the novel PIM kinase inhibitor KMU-470, a derivative of indolin-2-one, inhibits lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory responses in RAW 264.7 cells. We demonstrated that KMU-470 suppressed the production of nitric oxide and inducible nitric oxide synthases that are induced by LPS in RAW 264.7 cells. Furthermore, KMU-470 inhibited LPS-induced up-regulation of TLR4 and MyD88, as well as the phosphorylation of IκB kinase and NF-κB in RAW 264.7 cells. Additionally, KMU-470 suppressed LPS-induced up-regulation at the transcriptional level of various pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6. Notably, KMU-470 inhibited LPS-induced up-regulation of a major component of the inflammasome complex, NLRP3, in RAW 264.7 cells. Importantly, PIM-1 siRNA transfection attenuated up-regulation of NLRP3 and pro-IL-1β in LPS-treated RAW 264.7 cells. Taken together, these findings indicate that PIM-1 plays a key role in inflammatory signaling and that KMU-470 is a potential anti-inflammatory agent.

The in vitro anti-inflammatory effects of seven known lignans and one dihydrochalcone isolated from the leaves of two Lauraceae species (Pleurothyrium cinereum and Ocotea macrophylla), were evaluated through the inhibition of COX-1, COX-2, 5-LOX and the aggregation of rabbit platelets induced by PAF, AA and ADP. (+)-de-4"-O--methylmagnolin 4 was found to be a potent COX-2/5-LOX dual inhibitor and PAF-antagonist (COX-2 IC50 2.27 µM; 5-LOX IC50 5.05 µM; PAF IC50 2.51 µM). However, all compounds exhibited an activity at different levels, indicating good anti-inflammatory properties to be considered in further structural optimization studies.

Luteolin (LT), present in most plants, has potent anti-inflammatory properties both in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, some of its derivatives, such as luteolin-7-O-glucoside, also exhibit anti-inflammatory activity. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying luteolin-3′-O-phosphate (LTP)-mediated immune regulation are not fully understood. In this paper, we compared the anti-inflammatory properties of LT and LTP and analyzed their molecular mechanisms of action; we obtained LTP via the biorenovation of LT. We investigated the anti-inflammatory activities of LT and LTP in macrophage RAW 264.7 cells. We confirmed from previously reported literature that LT inhibits the production of nitric oxide and prostaglandin E2, as well as the expression of inducible NO synthetase and cyclooxygenase-2. In addition, expressions of inflammatory genes and mediators, such as tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6, and interleukin-1β, were suppressed. LTP showed anti-inflammatory activity similar to LT, but better anti-inflammatory activity in all the experiments, while also inhibiting mitogen-activated protein kinase and nuclear factor-kappa B more effectively than LT. At a concentration of 10 μM, LTP showed differences of 2.1 to 44.5% in the activity compared to LT; it also showed higher anti-inflammatory activity. Our findings suggest that LTP has stronger anti-inflammatory activity than LT.

Antioxidant Effects

Until now, the physiological effects of Soroseris hirsuta were primarily unknown. Here we have evaluated the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects of Soroseris hirsuta extract (SHE) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated murine macrophages RAW 264.7 cells. SHE inhibited nitric oxide expression and inducible nitric oxide synthase expression in RAW 264.7 cells treated with LPS. Moreover, SHE suppressed LPS-induced phosphorylation of IκB kinase, inhibitor of kappa B, p65, p38, and c-JUN N-terminal kinase. Western blot and immunofluorescence analyses showed that SHE suppressed p65 nuclear translocation induced by LPS. Furthermore, SHE inhibited the reactive oxygen species in LPS-treated RAW 264.7 cells. SHE significantly increased heme oxygenase-1 expression and the nuclear translocation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2. SHE suppressed LPS-induced interleukin-1β mRNA expression in RAW 264.7 cells. Thus, SHE is a promising nutraceutical as it displays anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Nrf2 Activator

Abstract The transcription factor Nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2 (NRF2) and its principal repressive regulator, the E3 ligase adaptor Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1), are critical in the regulation of inflammation, as well as maintenance of homeostasis. Thus, NRF2 activation provides cytoprotection against numerous inflammatory disorders. N-nicotinoylquinoxaline-2-carbohdyrazide (NQC) was designed by combining the important pharmacophoric features of bioactive compounds reported in the literature. NQC was synthesised and characterised using spectroscopic techniques. The compound was tested for its anti-inflammatory effect using LPSEc induced inflammation in mouse macrophages (RAW 264.7 cells). The effect of NQC on inflammatory cytokines was measured using ELISA. The Nrf2 activity of the compound NQC was determined using ‘Keap1:Nrf2 Inhibitor Screening Assay Kit’. To obtain the insights on NQC’s activity on Nrf2, molecular docking studies were performed using Schrodinger suite. The metabolic stability of NQC was determined using mouse, rat and human microsomes. NQC was found to be non-toxic until the dose of 50 µM on RAW 264.7 cells. The NQC showed potent anti-inflammatory effect in an in vitro model of Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated murine macrophages (RAW 264.7 cells) with an IC50 value 26.13 ± 1.17 µM. The NQC dose-dependently down regulated the pro-inflammatory cytokines (Interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α) and inflammatory mediator, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) with IC50 values 13.27 ± 2.37, 10.13 ± 0.58, 14.41 ± 1.83 and 15.23 ± 0.91 µM respectively. Molecular docking studies confirmed the favourable binding of NQC at Kelch domain of Keap-1. It disrupts the Nrf2 interaction with kelch domain of keap 1 and its IC50 value was 4.21 ± 0.89 µM. The metabolic stability studies of NQC in human, rat and mouse liver microsomes revealed that it is quite stable with half-life values; 59.78 ± 6.73, 52.93 ± 7.81, 28.43 ± 8.13 minutes; microsomal intrinsic clearance values; 22.1 ± 4.31, 26.0 ± 5.17 and 47.13 ± 6.34 µL/min/mg protein; respectively. So, rat has comparable metabolic profile with human, thus, rat could be used for predicting the pharmacokinetics and metabolism of NQC in human. NQC is a new class of NRF2 activator with potent in vitro anti-inflammatory activity and good metabolic stability.
