Abstract:
Objective To study the therapeutic effect of arbutin combined with glycyrrhizin on immune-inflammation. Methods The effect of arbutin combined with glycyrrhizin on adjuvant arthritis and on oxzolone induced mice ear swelling were investigated. PGE2 level in inflammatory tissue and LTB4 content from peritoneal macrophage of rat treated with arbutin and glycyrrhizin were determined. Results Arbutin combined with glycyrrhizin could inhibit Freund's complete adjuvant induced rat primary and secondary foot swelling. The combined group could also inhibit oxazolone induced mice ear swelling and decrease CD4+ T cell in blood. Compared with control group,PGE2 level in combined group was remarkable lower,and there was no difference between combined group and GL 400 mg/kg group. Arbutin combined with glycyrrhizin could inhibit LTB4 release from rat peritoneal macrophage. Conclusion Arbutin and glycyrrhizin has synergetic therapeutic effect on immune-inflammation.
