luteolin/inflammation

BACKGROUND Chronic and excessive alcohol consumption is an established risk for hepatic inflammation and carcinogenesis. Luteolin is one of the most common flavonoids present in plants and has potential beneficial effects against cancer. In this study, we examined the effect and potential mechanisms

Septic diseases represent the prevalent complications in intensive care units. Luteolin, a plant flavonoid, has potent anti-inflammatory properties; however, the molecular mechanism beneath luteolin mediated immune modulation remains unclear. Here in vitro investigations showed that luteolin

Luteolin (Lut) is a common dietary flavonoid present in Chinese herbal medicines that has been reported to have important anti-inflammatory properties. The purposes of this study were to observe the inhibition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory responses in bone marrow macrophages

Luteolin is a naturally occurring flavone that reportedly has anti-inflammatory effects. Because most luteolin is conjugated following intestinal absorption, free luteolin is likely present at low levels in the body. Therefore, luteolin metabolites are presumably responsible for luteolin

Flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds that not only impart coloration to plants and fruits, but also protect plants from pathogens, radiation, etc. They serve as a nutrient to plants and possess immense anti-oxidant properties. Research has shown that they exhibit anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and

The abundant use of lead (Pb; toxic heavy metal) worldwide has increased occupational and ecosystem exposure, with subsequent negative health effects. The flavonoid luteolin (LUT) found in many natural foodstuffs possesses antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Herein, we hypothesized that

OBJECTIVE To study the inhibitory effect of Luteolin on LPS-induced BV-2 cell. METHODS BV-2 cells were treated with LPS (0.1 microg/mL) for inflammation model; MTT assay was used to detect the viability of BV-2 cells; Nitric oxide (NO) was detected by the method of nitric acid reductase assay;

Luteolin is reported to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, we investigated the protective effect of luteolin against the renal damage induced by D-galactose (D-gal). The levels of creatinine (Cr) and urea nitrogen (BUN) were evaluated in plasma, kidney sections were

Luteolin is a flavonoid identified as a major anti-inflammatory component of Artemisia asiatica. Numerous reports have demonstrated the ability of luteolin to suppress inflammation in a variety of inflammatory conditions. However, its exact anti-inflammatory mechanism has not been fully elucidated.

Oral administration of the perilla leaf extract (PLE) to mice inhibits inflammation, allergic response, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha production. We also found that PLE suppressed the tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) production in vitro. Using the inhibitory activity of TNF-alpha production

Neuroinflammation is a complex pathological process usually results from abnormal microglial activation, thus, intervention in a microglial stimulation pathway could be a promising approach for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. Luteolin is an important bioflavonoid possesses

Regulatory T cells play an important role in autoimmunity and have been shown to exert anti-inflammatory effects in allergic asthma. Mouse model of airway inflammation was used to examine the suppressive activity of luteolin-induced CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) in vivo. In this study, BALB/c

GLM, a luteolin derivative, shows anti-melanogenic effect via regulation of various signal molecules; however, it is unclear whether it also exerts anti-inflammatory effect. This study investigated the mechanisms of the anti-inflammatory effect of GLM on activated dendritic cells (DCs) to elucidate

Dietary components in combination may act synergistically and produce enhanced biological activities. Herein, we investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of 2 flavonoids, that is luteolin (LUT) and tangeretin (TAN) in combination. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages were

Flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds ubiquitous in plants. Quercetin, luteolin, and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) are flavonoids with a number of biochemical and cellular actions relevant to glucose homeostasis, but their regulation of insulin action is still uncertain. This study aims to
