Abstract:
AIM: To observe the anti-inflammatory effect of CQMUH-011 and to explore its mechanism.METHODS: Three kinds of animal models, mouse ear swelling induced by xylene, rat granuloma induced by cotton ball and rat rheumatoid arthritis induced by Freund's complete adjuvant, were established to study the anti-inflammatory effect of CQMUH-011.The ear swelling degree, dry weight of cotton ball granuloma, arthritis index, paw swelling and ankle joint pathological changes were measured to reflect the severity of inflammation.The anti-inflammatory mechanisms of CQMUH-011 were investigated by detecting the serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) by ELISA.Malondialdehyde (MDA), myeloperoxidase (MPO) and nitric oxide (NO) were determined by corresponding kits.RESULTS: Treatment with CQMUH-011 significantly decreased TNF-α, IL-6 and NO concentrations, MDA contents and MPO activity in the serum.Meanwhile, Ear swelling degree, dry weight of cotton ball granuloma, arthritis index, paw swelling and ankle joint pathological damage were attenuated.CONCLUSION: CQMUH-011 has an anti-inflammatory effect, which may be related to inhibiting the production of inflammatory factors and attenuating lipid peroxidation.
