Abstract:
Objective To observe the effects of wogonin on lipopolysaccharide(LPS-induced) proinflammatory cytokine production in activated microglia.Methods By using LPS-induced microglia activation model,nitric oxide(NO),tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-?) and interleukin-6(IL-6) secreted by extracellular fluid were measured by ELISA.Results Microglia markedly produced NO,TNF-? and IL-6 in response to LPS.Wogonin,administered at 20-30 ?mol/L,significantly reduced the production of NO,TNF-? and IL-6 in microglia.Conclusion Wogonin has an inhibitory effect on the production of proinflammatory cytokines.
