Peimine Inhibits the Production of Proinflammatory Cytokines Through Regulation of the Phosphorylation of NF-κB and MAPKs in HMC-1 Cells.
Pharmacognosy Magazine 2017 July
BACKGROUND: Peimine is a major biologically active component of Fritillaria ussuriensis. Peimine was investigated in chronic inflammation response, but it has not been studied in mast cell-related immediate allergic reaction. The present study aimed to evaluate anti-allergic effect of peimine in human mast cell (HMC-1).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The effect of peimine on cell viability was measured by MTS assay in HMC-1. Histamine release was investigated in rat peritoneal mast cells (RPMCs). Interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) expressions were measured by ELISA assay and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) were examined by Western blot. Passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) reactions were evaluated using Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats.
RESULTS: Peimine inhibited the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α. Moreover, peimine reduced MAPKs phosphorylation and the nuclear NF-κB expression in PMACI-induced HMC-1. Peimine decreased PCA reactions in rats as well.
CONCLUSION: Our study proved that peimine might be suitable for the treatment of mast cell-derived allergic inflammatory reactions.
SUMMARY: Peimine inhibited the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-αPeimine reduced MAPKs phosphorylation and the nuclear NF-κB expression in PMACI-induced HMC-1Peimine decreased PCA reactions in ratsPeimine has anti-allergic effect through regulation of pro-inflammatory mechanism on mast cell.
